About this opportunity
The Department of State's US Embassy Baku has published a Special Notice for Transportation Service opportunities for the U.S. Embassy in Baku, Azerbaijan. This is a sole-source contract award set aside for small businesses, covering comprehensive transportation services for senior high-level U.S. Government officials and delegations. The notice was posted on February 13, 2026, with proposals due by March 6, 2026. The contract represents an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) agreement with an estimated value of $379,187 for the initial performance period. The procurement authority is based on FAR 6.302-2 (Unusual and Compelling Urgency), justified by the unpredictable nature of VIP travel, security restrictions, short turnaround times, and frequent last-minute itinerary changes that preclude full and open competition.
The contract requires vendors to provide multiple vehicle types with professional drivers, including sedans, vans, SUVs, buses, and cargo vehicles, along with associated support services such as fuel, dispatch, tolls, and parking. Eligible contractors must demonstrate the capacity to deploy a minimum of 145 qualified drivers within five days of contract award and maintain general liability insurance with specified per-occurrence limits. All drivers must meet baseline qualifications including English language proficiency, valid local licensing, and successful security clearance processing. Contractors are required to register with SAM.GOV within 30 days of award and submit electronic invoices through established U.S. Embassy procedures. This procurement is classified under NAICS 485310 (Taxi and Ridesharing Services) and offers a critical support function for diplomatic operations, with the initial contract term extending through February 28, 2026, and potential for extension based on performance and continued operational needs.
