Hakopian Services, Inc.

Hakopian Services, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, provides translation, interpretation, localization, and language support analysis services to the Department of State as a prime contractor, operating entirely on full-and-open competitive and non-competitive BPA task orders with no set-aside designations. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation that has held a continuous relationship with the State Department's Bureau of Administration since 2005, delivering language services supporting diplomatic operations, international exchange programs, humanitarian initiatives, and Armenia-focused educational and refugee-response efforts.

Hakopian Services operates exclusively through Blanket Purchase Agreements issued by the Department of State Bureau of Administration. The vendor holds positions on four active or recently completed BPAs: BPA 190PRL25A0069 with a $250,000 ceiling (effective October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, with fifteen task orders issued to date), BPA 190PRL24A0069 with a $150,000 ceiling (six task orders), BPA 190PRL23A0069 with a $150,000 ceiling (eleven task orders), and BPA 190PRL21A0069 with a $100,000 ceiling (three task orders). Representative recent work includes a $15,500 BPA call for language services awarded October 1, 2024 with completion November 22, 2025; a $4,944 call awarded October 1, 2025 with completion February 11, 2026; and a $14,181 call for translation and interpretation support awarded October 1, 2023 with completion February 24, 2024. Task orders typically range from hundreds to fifteen thousand dollars and carry firm-fixed-price structures with performance locations in Washington, D.C. and occasional overseas sites supporting Armenia-related programs.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Department of State Bureau of Administration accounts for 51 of 71 awards (80% of award count) and $964,000 of the $1.1 million combined potential value (88% of dollars). Three awards from the Department of Commerce National Institute of Standards and Technology and one from the International Trade Administration diversify the portfolio minimally. Hakopian Services has received one unspecified award from the State Department's Office of Language Services. Recent activity peaked in 2024 with fifteen awards, compared to four awards in 2021 and twelve in 2022; the source captures only one award dated 2025, reflecting a snapshot effect from the October 1, 2025 data extraction date. Forty percent of combined potential value across all seventy-one awards has been obligated to date, signaling remaining capacity on the current vehicle lineup. The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint and competes entirely under full-and-open task-order mechanisms rather than set-aside categories. All 68 task orders are classified under PSC Support-Administrative Translation and Interpreting; three awards under the Department of Commerce carry PSC Support-Management Advertising, likely reflecting specialized language support or outreach services. The entire portfolio concentrates on NAICS 541519 or equivalent translation and interpretation services, reflecting narrow capability focus tied to State Department language procurement needs.
