Sarita Gomez-Mola

Sarita Gomez-Mola, a woman-owned, minority-owned small business sole proprietorship based in Houston, Texas, provides Spanish-language translation and interpretation services to the Department of State as a prime contractor competing on a full-and-open basis without set-aside designations. A self-certified small disadvantaged business registered as a federal contractor since 2007, Gomez-Mola holds no parent contract vehicles and operates exclusively as a prime; the vendor's entire footprint consists of BPA calls issued under successive State Department language-services vehicles.

All fifty-two awards in the source span three federal customers, with absolute concentration at the Department of State Bureau of Administration: forty-five awards valued at $746 thousand combined potential value represent 98% of the vendor's named contract work. Six additional awards flow to the Department of State main office for $14 thousand combined potential value, and one award from the Department of Justice Office of US Attorneys (a $0 purchase-order award for interpreter services at trial, dated June 2022) rounds out the customer base. Work is performed in Washington, DC and covers translation, interpretation, and cultural advisory support for diplomatic and administrative communications, including international trade discussions, regional migration briefings, and routine State Department operations.

Gomez-Mola sits on five successive State Department BPA vehicles spanning October 2022 through September 2026. The most recent vehicle (BPA 190PRL25A0549, ceiling $250 thousand, effective through September 30, 2026) carries fifteen task orders valued at $35 thousand combined potential. The prior vehicle (BPA 190PRL24A0549, ceiling $250 thousand, effective through September 30, 2025) generated eleven task orders worth $35 thousand. Earlier vehicles with ceilings of $150 thousand each (awards October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024, and October 1, 2022 through September 30, 2023) produced twenty-one combined task orders. Gomez-Mola holds no GWACs, agency-wide IDIQs, or GSA Schedules. All work flows through State Department BPA call-order vehicles, with individual call values ranging from $778 to $10,400.

Activity has remained relatively stable year over year—between six and twelve awards annually over the past five years—with 2025 showing six awards placed to date. Combined potential value across all fifty-two awards totals $761 thousand, with only $111 thousand (15%) obligated, suggesting many calls are issued at contract ceiling but not fully exercised. All awards lack set-aside designation, indicating the vendor competes directly against larger firms in the open federal marketplace for language services. Gomez-Mola has no subcontract footprint and operates as a solo proprietor delivering services directly to State Department end users.
