Future COMSATCOM Services Acquisition (FCSA)
Over the past decade, federal government customers have procured Commercial Satellite Communications (COMSATCOM) services through a combination of Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and General Services Administration (GSA) contract vehicles. With the multiple contracts expiring in the 2011-2012 timeframe, and to increase cooperation among federal agencies, DISA and GSA have announced a joint strategy to replace the expiring contracts.
Representatives from 64 companies attended GSA's FCSA Strategy Announcement on August 6, 2009.
