Gaithersburg, MD, USA – [August 2019] – An undisclosed US DoD entity awarded UtliSat a fixed-price contract for the design, integration installation and testing of RF equipment for the upgrade of MILSATCOM earth station infrastructure. The project will commence immediately and is expected to be completed in the July 2020 timeframe.
“UtliSat is very pleased to win this competitively-procured contract that adds to its long list of SATCOM ground segment infrastructure designed, integrated, installed and supported by tenured UtliSat personnel. I am fully confident the Customer will receive a well-engineered system that will meet and most likely exceed all requisite specifications including difficult Radio frequency tolerances as well as overall reliability and operational availability specifications,” said Dwight Hunsicker, Executive Vice President of UtliSat.
The contract will ensure the DoD has the most current hardware including amplifiers, receivers, and power supplies necessary to provide highly resilient satellite communications.
“Over the past five years, UtliSat has provided this US DoD customer with three separate elements of their SATCOM ground segment infrastructure. Their continued confidence in our work product, schedule compliance, and overall value offering is of great satisfaction to the entire UtliSat organization,” said Mr. Hunsicker.
