Mentani Lucia M

Mentani Lucia M, a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship based in Tampa, Florida, provides English-Italian translation and interpretation services to the Department of State as a prime contractor operating exclusively under Blanket Purchase Agreements. All twenty recent federal awards are language services calls against State Department BPAs, with no subcontract footprint and no participation in set-aside categories — work is awarded full-and-open without preferential set-aside designation.

The vendor's customer concentration is singular. The Department of State Bureau of Administration accounts for sixteen of twenty awards (90% of recent award count) and $638 thousand of $661 thousand combined potential value, with the remainder split between a $14 thousand Department of State language services call and a $4 thousand Department of Justice US Trustee Program interpretation order. The source carries no evidence of work outside the State Department's Bureau of Administration, which has maintained a purchasing relationship with Mentani Lucia M since the vendor's SAM.gov registration in December 2007.

Mentani Lucia M holds four successive Blanket Purchase Agreements with the Department of State Bureau of Administration, each carrying a $150 thousand to $250 thousand ceiling and spanning multiple years. The current active BPA (190PRL25A0486, ceiling $250 thousand, performance through September 30, 2026) has generated four task orders totaling $37 thousand in combined potential value. Earlier BPAs (190PRL23A0486, 190PRL19A0486, and 190PRL18A0486) generated two, one, and one task orders respectively, with combined values of $780, $27 thousand, and $24 thousand. Representative awards include a $14,008 language services call issued October 1, 2025 (completion July 18, 2026), a $13,200 call issued October 1, 2024 (completion October 30, 2025), and a $5,480 call issued October 1, 2023 (completion September 29, 2024). All calls are firm fixed price with no set-aside designation and require performance in Washington, D.C.

Activity has been sporadic — one award in 2020, three in 2022, two in 2023, four in 2024, and one in 2025 — with only one award ($14 thousand potential value) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and thus exposed to recompete. The vendor has obligated $111 thousand of its $661 thousand combined potential value across all awards, a 17% realization rate. Mentani Lucia M's capability footprint is bounded to translation and interpretation services; all twenty awards carry the PSC code for Support-Administrative: Translation and Interpreting and the NAICS code 541930 (Translation and Interpretation Services). The vendor operates as a sole proprietor delivering specialized linguistic support for Department of State diplomatic communications and administrative functions with no named subcontractor relationships or parent vehicle leverage outside the State Department's internal BPA structure.
