Constantine Gikas

Constantine Gikas, a sole proprietorship based in Jacksonville, Florida, provides translation and interpretation services to the Department of State as a prime contractor exclusively under full-and-open Blanket Purchase Agreements with no set-aside designation. All forty of Gikas's recent federal awards are BPA call orders for language services issued by the State Department's Bureau of Administration.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Bureau of Administration accounts for 32 awards with $738 thousand in combined potential value, and the Department of State proper accounts for 8 awards with $20 thousand, representing 100% of Gikas's recent award footprint across a single customer agency. Gikas holds multiple active BPA vehicles with the Bureau of Administration spanning language services, logistics support, and administrative functions. The three most active parent BPAs are the Language Services Agreement 190PRL25A0561 (11 task orders, $36 thousand combined potential value), the Language Services Agreement 190PRL22A0561 (8 task orders, $24 thousand combined potential value), and the Language Services Agreement 190PRL23A0561 (7 task orders, $29 thousand combined potential value). The current BPA vehicle, awarded October 1, 2024, carries a $250 thousand ceiling through September 30, 2026. Recent representative task orders include a $8,436 language services call on October 1, 2025, completing October 10, 2026; a $7,636 call on October 1, 2024, completing October 25, 2025; and a $7,584 call on October 1, 2022, completing September 30, 2023.

Activity has been cyclical rather than growth-oriented: nine awards in 2021, eight in 2022, six in 2023, four in 2024, and eight in 2025 to date. Combined potential value across all awards reaches $757 thousand with only $107 thousand obligated (14% of potential value), indicating the portfolio consists of small-dollar, task-order-based work. One award with $6 thousand in combined potential value reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. Gikas operates exclusively as prime contractor with no subcontract footprint. The vendor's entire capability profile centers on translation, interpretation, and language support services for diplomatic and consular operations, with all work performed in Washington, DC or in support of State Department global operations and bilateral diplomatic initiatives including the US-Greece Memorandum and the Edward R. Murrow Program for Journalism.
