US Embassy Ulaanbaatar

The Department of State US Embassy Ulaanbaatar is a civilian diplomatic post that procures goods and services to support embassy operations in Mongolia. The mission encompasses facility maintenance, logistics, administrative support, and vendor services required for day-to-day diplomatic and consular functions at the post.

Contract activity at the Embassy remains minimal. Since 2019, the post has issued 8 total federal contract awards with a combined potential value of $130 thousand and $86 thousand obligated to date. Award cadence has been uneven: 1 award in 2019, 1 in 2022, 3 in 2023, 1 in 2024, and 2 in 2025. One of the seven recent awards (14%) carries no reported potential value, indicating the post transacts through Schedule task orders, BPA calls, or below-threshold purchase orders alongside definitive contracts.

Competition is highly fragmented. Babco International Inc. leads by potential value with 2 awards worth $47 thousand combined, while Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees account for 4 awards totaling $51 thousand combined potential value across multiple entities. Premier & Companies, Inc. holds 1 award for $19 thousand. All contract awards have been issued outside any set-aside program — 100 percent carry no set-aside designation.

The Embassy's contracting footprint is too modest and irregular to signal sustained procurement intent. The small dollar volumes, foreign-awardee concentration (reflecting local-hire and local-vendor sourcing typical of overseas diplomatic posts), and low award frequency suggest that most routine operational support is either handled through direct procurement authority below the contract-award reporting threshold or sourced through standing GSA or State Department regional agreements. The post does not maintain an active pipeline of standing opportunities. No recent contract solicitations are on file for the Embassy.

Business development focus on this office is not warranted at this time.
