    HC101317A0004_JA_BRIDGE_20230330 Redacted.pdf
    The document outlines a limited source justification and approval for a bridge modification to continue Inmarsat Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) and Global Xpress (GX) services for the Department of Defense and Federal Agencies, as the current Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) expires on March 31, 2023. The extension, lasting three months, is necessary to prevent a loss of critical communications while transitioning existing orders to a newly awarded BPA. COMSAT, the incumbent service provider, is deemed uniquely qualified to maintain continuity without service interruptions.
