Donald J Clark

Donald J Clark, operating as Donald J Clark Division, is a sole proprietorship based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, that provides translation, interpretation, and related language support services to the Department of State on a full-and-open competitive basis as a prime contractor (100% of awards). The vendor competes without SBA set-aside designations and holds no subcontractor relationships; all work is performed directly for federal customers.

Donald J Clark's federal footprint is entirely concentrated with the Department of State Bureau of Administration, which accounts for 41 of 52 awards (85% coverage) and $983 thousand of the $1.1 million combined potential value. The vendor also holds three smaller awards from the broader Department of State at $29 thousand combined. All work falls under NAICS 541511 (Translation and Interpretation Services) and PSC Support–Administrative Translation and Interpreting. Individual task orders typically range from several hundred dollars to approximately $15,000, with the vendor executing these through multiple successive BPA vehicles since 2007. Representative recent work includes a $14,880 BPA call from State's Bureau of Administration for language services (awarded October 1, 2025, completion August 1, 2026), a $13,640 BPA call for language services (October 1, 2025, completion April 18, 2026), and a $14,328 BPA call completed in November 2024. Earlier work included a $6,792 BPA call for visual arts and social change initiatives (March 2022) and an $8,490 call supporting entrepreneurship and youth empowerment programs (October 2021), signaling scope variation beyond pure language services within the Bureau of Administration's contracting.

Donald J Clark holds positions on five active BPA vehicles with the Bureau of Administration. The largest is the current $250,000 multiple-award BPA (effective through September 30, 2026, awarded October 1, 2024) with 10 task orders valued at $95 thousand. The predecessor $150,000 BPA (effective through September 30, 2024, awarded October 1, 2023) carried 9 task orders worth $78 thousand. A prior $150,000 BPA (September 30, 2023, awarded October 1, 2022) supported 7 task orders totaling $42 thousand. These vehicles establish the Bureau's indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity framework for procuring language services on demand. The vendor also holds a Basic Ordering Agreement (SOPRLS07G264) with three task orders valued at $24 thousand.

Activity has been stable, with awards ranging from three to ten annually over the past five years (2021: 4 awards; 2022: 9 awards; 2023: 10 awards; 2024: 8 awards; 2025: 3 awards, though the year is incomplete). Combined dollars obligated total $405 thousand against $1.1 million combined potential value, a 38% utilization rate. Only one award (combined potential value $15 thousand) is scheduled for ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete cliff exposure in the near term. The vendor has maintained a consistent relationship with the State Department's Bureau of Administration for nearly two decades, with successive BPA ceiling values increasing from $100,000 (2021–2022) to $150,000 (2022–2024) and now $250,000 (2024–2026), suggesting sustained customer confidence and incremental expansion of ordering capacity.
