Specific services have included translation and interpretation in the Uyghur language, conducting cultural interviews, producing human rights reports, and managing social media content. None of the contract awards utilized set-aside designations, and Mutallip Anwar has been the prime contractor on all identified contracts. The work has consistently been performed in Washington, D.C., with a focus on supporting the Department of State's diplomatic and human rights documentation missions.

Mutallip Anwar has been awarded multiple Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDV) contracts with the Department of State Bureau of Administration.
