Mitchell Yohko

Mitchell Yohko, a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship based in Bethesda, Maryland, provides translation and interpretation services to the Department of State as a prime contractor on multiple-award blanket purchase agreements, competing on full-and-open basis with no set-aside designations applied across its federal footprint.

Mitchell Yohko holds a monolithic customer relationship: the Department of State Bureau of Administration accounts for 60 of 74 total awards (81%) and $931 thousand of the $1 million combined potential value across the portfolio (93%). Ancillary work through the Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service (10 awards, $62 thousand) and the Department of State mainline office (2 awards, $28 thousand) comprise the remainder. The vendor has maintained this customer concentration since receiving its first award in October 2005. Performance is conducted in Washington, DC for all named task orders.

Mitchell Yohko operates under four active and one inactive multiple-award BPA with the State Department Bureau of Administration. The current vehicle, Blanket Purchase Agreement 190PRL25A0232 (ceiling $250 thousand, through September 30, 2026), has generated 22 task orders totaling $100 thousand in potential value; the prior-year BPA 190PRL24A0232 (ceiling $150 thousand, completed September 30, 2024) carried 9 orders valued at $32 thousand. Earlier vehicles — 190PRL23A0232 (11 orders, $55 thousand), 190PRL22A0232 (7 orders, $31 thousand), and 190PRL18A0232 (1 order, $18 thousand) — remain in the source data. Task orders against these vehicles range from $566 to $24,308 and cover interpretation, translation, and linguistic support for diplomatic operations, public diplomacy, bilateral cooperation programs, women's political leadership initiatives, and international meetings. Representative named work includes a $24,308 language services call awarded October 1, 2025 (completion May 29, 2026), a $14,625 call from October 1, 2022 (completion December 9, 2022), and a $14,150 call for empowering women's political leadership awarded October 1, 2021 (completion August 20, 2022).

Award frequency has grown from four awards in 2021 to a peak of 21 in 2024, with only 2 recorded awards in 2025 to date. The portfolio shows minimal recompete cliff exposure: of the 74 awards, only those reaching ultimate completion between July 15, 2026 and July 15, 2027 face imminent recompete, representing a subset of the current BPA ceiling value. The vendor operates 100% as prime and holds no subcontract relationships in the source data. All awards are firm fixed-price, non-set-aside designations under the minority-owned and woman-owned business classifications carried in vendor registration. The combined dollars obligated ($382 thousand) represent 37% of potential value, indicating task orders are being executed against available ceiling rather than exercised to their full stated amounts.
