US Embassy Lapaz

The Department of State US Embassy La Paz is a civilian diplomatic mission post that awards contracts to support embassy operations and program delivery in Bolivia. The embassy procures goods and services locally and internationally to maintain facilities, support diplomatic functions, and execute State Department initiatives within its jurisdiction.

The embassy has issued 27 federal contract awards since November 2015, with combined potential value of $842 thousand and $345 thousand obligated to date. Activity over the last five years shows 2 awards in 2022, 5 in 2023, 5 in 2024, 5 in 2025, and 1 year-to-date in 2026. Of the 18 recent awards issued in the last five years, 8 (44%) carry no reported potential value, typical of Schedule task orders, BPA calls, modifications, or below-threshold purchase orders that transact under pre-established vehicles.

Competitive concentration is highly concentrated by award count and by potential value among recent awardees. Over the last five years, miscellaneous foreign awardees hold 12 of 18 recent awards (67% by count) across three separate entries covering $148 thousand in combined potential value. Totes LTDA leads by reported value at $479 thousand on a single award, and Samstar LLC holds $148 thousand on one award. SAM Logistics And Supplies Inc. and Breeze Boise 1 LLC each hold one recent award with unreported potential value. The 12 distinct prime contractors across the portfolio lifetime reflect the small scale and localized nature of embassy procurement.

All 27 awards carry no set-aside designation. This absence of small-business, 8(a), WOSB, SDVOSB, or HUBZone set-asides reflects the embassy's reliance on direct-hire foreign vendors and international suppliers to meet operational needs in-country and the below-threshold or Schedule-based nature of much of the procurement activity.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the embassy or its descendant offices. No grant activity or grant opportunities are supported by the source.
