DOD Signs SkyTel For General Paging Services
Washington DC - September 24, 1998 - The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) and Department of Defense (DOD) announced Wednesday that SkyTel will be the new provider of paging services for Defense Telecommunications Service - Washington (DTS-W). The paging services agreement -- part of the Federal Wireless Telecommunications Services (FWTS) contract held by GTE Government Systems -- provides DTS-W with nationwide paging coverage, highly competitive prices and the latest one-way, two-way, numeric and alphanumeric pagers that the industry has to offer. In addition, DTS-W customers gain the advantage of the outstanding reliability of SkyTel's redundant satellite systems. Last spring when a faulty satellite spun out of orbit, SkyTel's networks continued to operate. "GSA is delighted to be expanding our partnership with DOD to include these services," said Federal Telecommunications Service Commissioner Dennis Fischer. "This partnership shows GSA's commitment to our Federal telecommunications customers by providing consistent, quality paging service at the best value."
