About this agency

The Department of State Bureau of Human Resources is a civilian sub-agency that procures human resources services, personnel management support, and related administrative contracting for State Department operations, alongside limited grant funding for internship and academic programs.

The Bureau has awarded 15,624 federal contracts totaling $3.34 billion in combined potential value across 858 distinct prime contractors since 2003, with $1.92 billion obligated as of the most recent recorded transaction. Recent contract activity has declined substantially: 723 awards in 2022, 426 in 2023, 403 in 2024, 234 in 2025, and 7 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent recorded award date is June 11, 2026.

Contract competition is highly fragmented by award count but severely concentrated by dollar value. The top five primes by award count hold 54 percent of recent awards, led by three separate groupings of Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees (636, 147, and 65 awards respectively, combined potential value not reported in source data), followed by Gosselin Mobility (80 awards, $1.8 million) and Sullivan Moving & Storage, Inc. (65 awards, $884 thousand). By potential value over the last five years, concentration is highly concentrated at only 3 percent coverage: Eagle Harbor Solutions LLC dominates with 23 awards and $72 million combined potential value, followed distantly by Rightdirection Technology Solutions, LLC ($10.1 million) and New TECH Solutions, Inc. ($9 million). The Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees categories transact heavily through unreported mechanisms; their true dollar weight is unknown from the source data.

Set-asides are minimal: 98 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. The remaining 2 percent splits among 8(a) Sole Source (91 awards), Total Small Business (78 awards), Competitive 8(a) (25 awards), HUBZone (18 awards), and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (16 awards), with negligible volume in Woman-Owned Small Business, Partial Small Business, HUBZone Sole Source, and HBCU/MI categories.

The Bureau has awarded 36 federal grants totaling $128 million in obligated federal dollars across three distinct recipients since 2013. Recent grant volume is stable at 3 awards in 2020 and 2021, 4 in 2022 and 2023, and 5 in 2024; the most recent grant award closed on September 2, 2024. All grants are structured as Cooperative Agreements. Grant recipients are highly concentrated: Howard University and The Washington Center For Internships And Academic Seminars hold 100 percent of recent awards by count and 40 percent of recent federal dollars by the top-two ranking, with Howard University commanding $37 million across six awards and the Washington Center holding $14 million across seven awards.

No recent contract opportunities or grant opportunities are present in the source data.
