Bernd Mattes

Bernd Mattes, doing business as Elektrovertrieb Mattes, is a German sole proprietorship based in Wallertheim that provides facility maintenance, electrical installation, and infrastructure support services to the Department of State as a prime contractor exclusively in Germany, with no subcontract activity and no participation in federal set-aside programs.

Elektrovertrieb Mattes operates as a specialized overseas facility-support vendor locked to a single customer — the Department of State — across seven internal bureaus. The Bureau of Overseas Building Operations anchors 48% of recent awards (35 awards, $1.6 million combined potential value), followed closely by the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs (30 awards, $1 million combined potential value). The Bureau of Diplomatic Security, Bureau of Consular Affairs, and Bureau of Administration round out the active set at smaller volumes. All customer agencies are concentrated within the Department of State; the vendor has not worked with any other federal agency. The top NAICS codes reflect facility electrical work — Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors (23 awards), Other Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance (10 awards), and Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance (6 awards).

Concrete recent work includes a $240.6 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from the Bureau of Overseas Building Operations (August 2026) for emergency exit sign replacement at a compound in Germany; a $145.6 thousand purchase order from the same bureau (August 2025) for a flexible loading dock system; a $123.6 thousand delivery order (August 2025) exercising a vehicle barrier preventive maintenance indefinite delivery contract for a one-year option and six-month option; a $66.3 thousand delivery order (August 2024) for vehicle barrier preventive maintenance under Option Year Three; and multiple smaller purchase orders for electrical work, facility testing, lighting fixtures, and gate repairs ranging from $500 to $50.8 thousand. The vendor holds a $500 thousand single-award indefinite delivery contract with the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs for vehicle barrier preventive maintenance valid through July 2026, and a zero-dollar blanket purchase agreement with the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs for electrical services running through October 2027.

Activity has accelerated sharply in the most recent fiscal period — one award in both 2022 and 2023, three in 2024, and ten in 2025 — though this year has recorded only two awards to date (both in August 2026). Combined potential value across all 73 awards is $3.4 million, with $2.9 million (85%) obligated. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months ($124 thousand combined potential value). The vendor's SAM registration is valid through June 2026. As a German sole proprietorship performing exclusively at U.S. government facilities in Germany, Elektrovertrieb Mattes operates outside the domestic federal procurement ecosystem and holds no parent vehicle seats with U.S.-based government-wide acquisition contracts or blanket purchase agreements.
