Alaska Communications Systems Group (ACS) says that it has won a six-year contractual agreement with the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), to provide all voice and data services to federal agencies throughout Alaska. This is the third GSA contract awarded to ACS in the last three years.
“We are excited that ACS has the opportunity to expand on the twenty-year relationship with GSA, and to serve the federal agencies that do business in Alaska,” said Sheldon Fisher, senior vice president of sales and service. “We look forward to continuing to work together to provide integrated telecommunications services to the many federal employees statewide."
Under the multi-year contract, ACS will provide all voice services, local private lines, Metro Ethernet and a variety of Internet solutions -- supporting 200 federal agency offices across Alaska. This follows another multi-year contract awarded to ACS in 2005 for GSA local phone service in Anchorage and Juneau, modified later to include Kodiak, and an additional contract granted in October 2007, allowing ACS to provide wireless phone service to federal agencies statewide.
