Segovia Secures Tenth Terrestrial Services Contract for the Department of Defense

HERNDON, Va., Oct. 31, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Segovia, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Inmarsat plc and a leading provider of secure, global telecommunications to the public and private sectors, announced today that it has been awarded its tenth terrestrial contract by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization (DITCO). The recent wins have allowed Segovia to quickly and successfully expand its terrestrial presence to meet network requirements for customers such as the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA), Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), Defense Information systems Agency (DISA), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and other Government agencies in multiple U.S. locations.

Selected for its low-cost, technically-sound and comprehensive end-to-end solutions, including last mile, metro, long haul services, as well as network diversity and innovation in providing mission-critical communications, Segovia now provides terrestrial communications for military bases in twelve states. The fulfillment of these contracts and Segovia’s ability to meet their diverse network requirements will enable critical connectivity to multiple locations.
