US Embassy Berlin

The Department of State's US Embassy Berlin procures goods and services to support diplomatic operations and facility management at the mission. As a sub-office of the State Department operating in Berlin, Germany, the Embassy awards contracts for embassy operations, maintenance, administration, and support services managed locally through the Embassy's contracting function.

The Embassy has awarded 192 federal contracts since July 2018, totaling $9.1 million in combined potential value with $8.3 million obligated (91% of the ceiling). Contract volume has accelerated over the last five years: 17 awards in 2022, 30 in 2023, 43 in 2024, 23 in 2025, and 27 so far in 2026. The most recent award closed on September 28, 2026. All 192 awards carry no set-aside designation, reflecting the Embassy's direct procurement from vendors in the German market.

The competitive landscape is highly fragmented. The top five primes by award count account for 95 percent of recent awards, but that concentration masks a dominance of miscellaneous foreign awardees—vendors categorized at a group level rather than individually named—which collectively hold 134 awards and $3.9 million in combined potential value over the last five years. The single identified German prime contractor in the top-five rankings, Kothe & Ritter GMBH, has won 11 awards with $8 thousand in combined potential value. Among the top five by combined potential value (covering 43 percent of recent awards by dollars), miscellaneous foreign awardees again dominate with $3.9 million across 123 awards; Renova Recycling Management GMBH appears as a named single-award vendor with $77 thousand in potential value. The Embassy has awarded contracts to 19 distinct primes across the portfolio history, indicating limited vendor repetition and a transactional structure typical of overseas contingency procurement focused on local German-market vendors.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded for the Embassy. The contract activity reflects completed awards rather than open solicitation, suggesting the Embassy's contracting pipeline is not currently surfaced in federal opportunity databases or is managed through direct award or local vendor outreach.
