Girardeau Anne Nee Girardeau Aglietta

Girardeau Anne Nee Girardeau Aglietta is a Paris-based sole proprietorship that delivers foreign language interpretation, translation, and localization services to the Department of State Bureau of Administration as a prime contractor, competing exclusively in full-and-open (no set-aside) procurements through blanket purchase agreements. The vendor operates entirely under BPA call vehicles issued by State's Bureau of Administration and has maintained this single-customer, single-agency relationship for over fifteen years.

The vendor's footprint is narrowly concentrated. The Department of State Bureau of Administration accounts for 204 of 205 prime awards (99.5%) and $1.3 million of combined potential value across the portfolio. The remaining one award, valued at $2 thousand, went to the Department of State (likely a parent-agency administrative designator). Work is performed in Washington, D.C. to support diplomatic communications, outreach efforts, international programs, and administrative needs. Capability work is uniform across the award history: foreign language interpretation, translation, localization, and associated administrative support such as event facilitation, materials development, youth leadership training, and demarche support. Representative awards include a $14,880 ceiling-value task order for language services (Oct. 2024), a $13,731 task order (Oct. 2023), a $150,000 BPA call (Oct. 2022), and a $2,452.62 task order issued most recently on October 1, 2025, with completion targeted for August 4, 2026.

The vendor holds five successive annual BPA IDIQs issued by State's Bureau of Administration, each denominated "ANNE GIRARDEAU LSA" with renewal cycles running October 1 through September 30. The current BPA (190PRL25A0105, awarded Oct. 1, 2024) carries a $250,000 ceiling and runs through September 30, 2026; the prior BPA (190PRL24A0105, Oct. 1, 2023) carried $150,000 and expired September 30, 2024. Task order volume under these vehicles is high and consistent: 52 task orders under the 2024 BPA ($96 thousand combined potential value), 52 under the 2023 BPA ($245 thousand), 49 under the 2022 BPA ($245 thousand), 27 under 2021 BPA ($43 thousand), and 13 under 2020 BPA ($28 thousand). Task order ceiling values range from as low as $8 to as high as $14,880, with the majority falling between $50 and $5,000.

Activity volume has grown year over year — 34 awards in 2021 to 53 in 2022, holding at approximately 50 annually in 2023 and 2024 — though only one award is recorded in 2025 (the October 1, 2025 BPA call). Of the $1.3 million in combined potential value across all awards, $523 thousand (40%) has been obligated, indicating ongoing utilization of the BPA vehicles. The BPA structure exposes the vendor to recompete risk each October as State's Bureau of Administration renews the IDIQ; the September 30, 2024 expiration of the 2023 BPA ($150,000 ceiling) has already passed, and the September 30, 2025 expiration of the 2022 BPA ($245,000 combined potential value under 49 task orders) marks a near-term recompete cliff. NAICS and PSC coding are uniform: 205 awards fall under Translation and Interpretation Services and PSC code for Support–Administrative: Translation and Interpreting.

The vendor operates as a sole proprietor with no prime teaming, subsidiaries, or sub-award activity; 100% of awards are prime contracts and BPA calls. Given the sole-agency concentration, narrow geographic footprint (Washington, D.C.), and annual BPA renewal structure, competitive entry for this customer base would require displacement at the BPA recompete cycle or demonstration of expanded language-service scope beyond the Bureau's historical needs.
