TELEFONICA CELULAR S.A. DE C.V.

Telefónica Celular S.A. de C.V. specializes in providing end-to-end wireless and wired telecommunications services to U.S. government missions abroad, with a primary focus on secure mobile voice and data connectivity for diplomatic, defense, and development personnel. The contractor delivers cellular network services, including SIM provisioning, voice over LTE, encrypted data plans, and mobile device management, tailored to the operational needs of U.S. missions in high-risk or remote environments. Their technical expertise lies in deploying and maintaining carrier-grade cellular infrastructure in coordination with local telecom providers, ensuring reliable, scalable, and compliant communications for field personnel using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) mobile devices under strict security protocols. The contractor maintains a sustained presence supporting the Department of State and the Department of Defense, delivering mission-critical mobile services for consular operations, international affairs units, and military logistics teams. For the State Department, they provide dedicated cellular connectivity for ICASS, DS, Consular, and INL personnel across overseas posts, while for DoD, they support regional logistics commands and base operations with secure mobile communications in theater. Their relationship with USAID reflects a consistent pattern of annual, mission-wide mobile service contracts, indicating deep integration into U.S. government overseas infrastructure. Their industry focus centers on wireless telecommunications carriers (NAICS 517112, 517210, 517312), where they function as a local carrier partner enabling U.S. federal agencies to leverage commercial mobile networks in foreign jurisdictions without direct infrastructure ownership. They operate as a reseller and service integrator, bridging U.S. government requirements with regional telecom ecosystems. Though headquartered in Tegucigalpa, their market positioning is global, serving U.S. missions in Latin America and beyond. The entity is structured as an X6 (foreign-owned concern) with no federal certifications on record, operating strictly through commercial telecommunications partnerships to fulfill government contracts.
