Ghanaati, Fatemeh

Fatemeh Ghanaati is a Washington, D.C. based woman-owned small business sole proprietorship providing language and consulting services to U.S. federal agencies through prime contract awards. The entity has been registered in the federal System for Award Management since January 2004 to contract with the government.

Ghanaati has primarily performed language services contracts for the Department of State Bureau of Administration. These firm fixed price blanket purchase agreement call orders cover interpretation, translation, and other linguistic support over short periods up to several months. Recent awards from October 2023 range from $80 to over $4,600, with the larger awards spanning 4-6 months and the smaller obligations as short as a month. No special socioeconomic set-asides were applied. Ghanaati has also provided consulting deliverables through two task orders to supply Grant Thornton assessment reports numbered 27 and 47 by October 2020 at values around $24,000 and $15,000 respectively for the Department of State Bureau of Administration. The reports likely contained independent analyses and recommendations to inform the agency's policies and initiatives.

Ghanaati currently holds two active blanket purchase agreements awarded by the Department of State Bureau of Administration. The first, valued at up to $150,000 through September 2024, allows the agency to place call orders for language services on an as-needed basis through firm fixed price contracts. Several call orders totaling approximately $8,000 have already been issued covering interpretation and translation requirements through early 2024. The second BPA awarded in 2020 procured two Grant Thornton reports for around $39,000 delivered by October 2020 to support program oversight and decision-making. While of limited duration, these vehicles demonstrate the Bureau's continued reliance on Ghanaati's linguistic capabilities and ability to produce analytical consulting reports.
