Oct. 20, 2026

Trace Systems Inc. (Trace) has been awarded a fiveyear follow-on to support the Peace Corps. This award strengthens Trace's ongoing support for the Peace Corps by delivering reliable, uninterrupted voice and messaging services, ensuring emergency connectivity across 60 overseas posts. Satellite communications remain essential for the agency due to the remote locations in which Peace Corps personnel often operate, where landline and cellular services are unavailable. Trace will continue to provide highly dependable satellite voice communications that enable Peace Corps posts to maintain continuous contact with Headquarters during emergencies and crises events.

Under this new task order, Trace will deliver and sustain comprehensive satellite communications services, including provisioning and maintaining 24/7/365 mobile voice connectivity, two-way text messaging, voicemail, global roaming, and technical support for satellite phones currently deployed worldwide. Trace will also ensure seamless service continuity with zero downtime, support integration with existing Peace Corps phone numbers, enable coverage of new geographies as the agency expands operations, and provide training, customer support, and warranty services. This award reinforces Trace's expertise in delivering resilient communications solutions in austere environments and sustaining emergency-ready infrastructure for global missions.

"Peace Corps personnel operate in some of the most remote environments in the world, where dependable communication isn't just helpful, it's essential to safety, coordination, and emergency response," said John Reilly, Vice President of Growth Operations. "Trace Systems is proud to continue supporting the Peace Corps with resilient satellite services that ensure secure, consistent connectivity no matter the location or circumstance."
