About this opportunity
The U.S. Embassy Riga has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for pouch handling services at Riga airport, involving the receiving, transporting, and handling of both unclassified and classified shipments critical to Embassy operations. The justification is based on the unique constraint that airport contractors must be vetted and approved by the airport, with the airport and flight operator determining the specific service provider, effectively limiting the Embassy's ability to choose a contractor. The estimated value of the contract is $25,000, including options, and was awarded under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) with contract number 19LG7525P0166. The contract was awarded on December 18, 2024, for an unspecified vendor, with the Contracting Officer certifying that the price is fair and reasonable. The procurement falls under the NAICS category 488991 (Packing and Crating) and PSC category R604 (Support - Administrative: Mailing/Distribution), specifically addressing the diplomatic mail and logistics needs of the U.S. Embassy in Latvia.
