About this opportunity
The U.S. Embassy Riga, under the Department of State, issued this Single Source Justification for pouch and mail handling services at Riga airport, including receiving, transporting, and handling both unclassified and classified diplomatic shipments. The justification for the sole source procurement stems from the fact that airport contractors are independently vetted and approved by the airport authority, with the airport and flight operator—rather than the Embassy—determining which company will provide the service, thereby eliminating the Embassy's ability to select an alternative vendor. The procurement was awarded on December 12, 2025, under contract number 19LG7526P0065 to an unknown vendor for an unknown amount. The estimated total value for the entire period of performance is EUR 22,200.00 annually, with the Contracting Officer certifying that the anticipated cost to the government is fair and reasonable. The justification was authorized under Federal Acquisition Regulation 13.106-1(b)(1) based on exclusive licensing agreements, with certification provided by Christopher Fields, Diplomatic Technology Chief, and Christine Lyons, Contracting Officer.
Notice text
U.S. Embassy Riga receives unclassified and classified pouch items at Riga airport to include receiving/transporting/handling shipments. These shipments are vital to Embassy operations.
The DPM determines the airline that will be utilized for unclassified and classified pouch to and from the post. The services required are available from only one responsible source. Airport contractors are vetted and approved by the airport, then the airport and the flight operator decide which company will do the service. The Embassy does not have the possibility to choose the company.
We estimate the value for the entire period of performance is € 22,200.00 per year. The price to the Government is anticipated to be fair and reasonable.
Awarded contract 19LG7526P0065 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2025-12-12.
