Gogo’s SD Government receives five-year federal contract

SD Government, a division of Gogo (GOGO), has received a five-year federal contract to deliver multi-band, multi-orbit airborne global satellite communications to a US government agency. The new agreement, initially valued at $3M, is a follow-on from Small Business Innovation Research, SBIR, Phase III activity originally undertaken by SDG, prior to the merger with Gogo. Awarded as a sole-source contract, the agreement will see the agency consolidate all aero communications across its fleet to this single contract over the next five years. With the consolidation of multiple contracts into a single contract, procurement time and complexity are dramatically reduced. In addition, the agreement allows users to focus resources on the mission rather than managing diverse contracts and vendors.
