Place of performance is Montenegro. The originating solicitation, posted January 8, 2019 with a due date of February 20, 2019, calls for design-build and construction management services for a new diplomatic facility. This contract represents State Department embassy construction work under full-and-open competition with no set-aside category.
Service Contract Inventory reporting shows significant labor mobilization across the performance period. FY2021 recorded $17.1 million invoiced across 59.2 FTEs and 123,202 contractor hours. Activity peaked in FY2023 with $41.8 million invoiced across 410 FTEs and 852,506 contractor hours, then moderated to $21.6 million and 322 FTEs in FY2024 and $21.2 million across 200 FTEs in FY2025. Derived government-paid hourly rates declined from $138.44 per hour in FY2021 to $49.06 per hour in FY2023 and $32.32 per hour in FY2024, reflecting a blended rate across prime and subcontractor labor.
