DA - District Attorney PO-DA-26008090

Renewal of Annual Satellite Services including BGAN Annual Plan and TELCAL Emergency Network Access

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office (DA - District Attorney) issued a purchase order (PO-DA-26008090) to ADAPTCONN, INC. for the renewal of annual satellite communication services covering the period from April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2027. The renewal includes the BGAN Annual Plan (BGPLUS), which provides satellite data and streaming via the Adaptconn/Satcom Direct U.S. hub with VPN, dedicated interconnects, and U.S. Tier 1 internet, supported by 24/7 network assistance and monitoring. The service plan includes 21 MB of monthly data usage (no rollover), satellite phone calls billed as made, voice call rates to fixed/cell and satellite numbers, SMS messaging, and various levels of monthly data excess usage charges. Adaptconn also provides connection to the proprietary TELCAL Emergency Telephone Network enabling private conference calling, 4-digit dialing extensions, and network access for BGAN and VSAT units. Equipment delivery and training are included, and no fees are charged for received calls. Multiple line items include the BGAN plan, U.S. telephone numbers for incoming calls, TELCAL emergency network access, and ISAT annual basic plans with talk time and SMS text messaging included. Key contacts are Alan Farber, President of Adaptconn, and Ed Murguia, Sergeant at the DA's office, as well as Howard Lam, the procurement buyer. This contract is notable for waiving one-time fees like SIM cards and activation, and for offering comprehensive emergency network communication capabilities tailored for governmental use.
