About this agency
The Department of State's US Embassy San Jose is a civilian diplomatic mission that procures goods and services to support embassy operations and programs in Costa Rica. The Embassy awards and administers contracts locally to fulfill administrative, maintenance, security, and programmatic functions at its San Jose facility and subordinate posts.
Since 2016, the Embassy has awarded 145 contracts totaling $23.1 million in combined potential value, with $20.9 million obligated to date (91% of potential). Recent activity shows 22 awards in 2022, 28 in 2023, 19 in 2024, 33 in 2025, and 11 year-to-date in 2026. Six of 114 recent awards carry no reported potential value, typical of Schedule task orders or BPA calls.
The competitive landscape is highly fragmented by award count but highly concentrated by potential value. Over the last five years, four unnamed miscellaneous foreign awardees account for 91 percent of recent awards (102 total) but only 14 percent of combined potential value ($2.8 million). A fifth foreign awardee, Refinadora Costarricense De Petroleo Sociedad Anonima, appears with two awards valued at $50 thousand. Raytheon Company holds one award worth $257 thousand. Twenty-one distinct prime contractors have been awarded over the portfolio lifetime.
Nearly all awards (144 of 145) carry no set-aside designation. One contract is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business.
No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the Embassy in the federal opportunities database.
