Delivery Order 191T7026D0002-191T7026F0289

The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs awarded a delivery order valued at $1.40 million to Starhotels SPA for hotel accommodation services in Italy, with performance completion targeted for February 28, 2026. This firm fixed-price contract, awarded on January 26, 2026, was not designated as a set-aside procurement. Starhotels SPA, an Italian hospitality company based in Milan, serves as the prime contractor and will provide lodging services directly without identified subcontractor involvement. The award represents the Department of State's continued reliance on this vendor, which has previously fulfilled two separate federal purchase orders from the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs totaling approximately $81,679.54 for accommodations supporting diplomatic operations and specific programs in Milan.

This contract supports the Department of State's operational requirements for temporary housing accommodations as federal personnel conduct diplomatic, conference, and official business activities in Italy. The substantial contract ceiling reflects the anticipated volume and duration of lodging needs for State Department personnel and affiliated individuals engaged in European and Eurasian Affairs operations. Starhotels SPA's experience providing commercial lodging facilities to federal agencies, demonstrated through prior successful performance on multiple purchase orders, positions the contractor to fulfill this accommodation requirement on a time-and-materials basis consistent with the temporary nature of federal travel and official business needs abroad.
