5 Telcos Get a Shot at $20B in Government Contracts

The U.S. General Services Administration has announced the winners of is second largest contract to provide next-generation telecom services to federal agencies: AT&T, Level 3 Communications, Qwest Communications, Sprint Nextel and Verizon. The five companies all have the right to compete for Networx Enterprise contracts from 135 federal agencies looking to update or enhance their telecom-related services with voice, IP, wireless, satellite and IP-centric services. In late March, the GSA awarded a similar though more expansive contract called "Networx Universal."
