Do all Satellite Service Providers qualify for TSP?
Yes, if their missions meet the TSP enrollment criteria. To qualify for the TSP program, an organization must: (1) be engaged in activities essential to the nation’s security or emergency preparedness and response functions (e.g., U.S. population warnings; the promotion of public health, safety, and maintenance of law and order; maintenance of the national economic posture), and (2) rely on telecommunications services to provide these essential functions. Certain circuits used by Satellite Service Providers should meet these criteria and therefore would qualify.
