Mohammad Fayeq Wahedi

Mohammad Fayeq Wahedi, a self-certified small disadvantaged business sole proprietorship based in Alexandria, Virginia, delivers Afghan-language translation and interpretation services to the Department of State's Bureau of Administration as a prime contractor on a non-set-aside basis, competing full-and-open across a portfolio of blanket purchase agreements.

Wahedi operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) with no subcontract activity. The vendor's capability portfolio centers on document translation, simultaneous interpretation, transcription, and language consultation with specialization in Dari and other Afghan languages. Representative work includes a $19,840 BPA task order for translation and interpretation services (October 2022–July 2023), a $3,419.91 call for language services (October 2022–June 2023), and a $1,078.60 firm-fixed-price task order for interpretation and translation support (October 2024–September 2025), all issued by the Bureau of Administration in Washington, DC. Wahedi's contract history demonstrates consistent engagement supporting the Department of State's Operation Allies Welcome, Special Immigrant Visa programs, and refugee resettlement operations, with prior awards ranging from single-task calls under $100 to language service engagements approaching $20,000.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of State Bureau of Administration accounts for 83 awards and $843 thousand in combined potential value (98% of the portfolio), with an additional two awards worth approximately $1 thousand from the Department of State proper. Wahedi holds a multi-year presence on the Bureau of Administration's language services BPA vehicles. The vendor's active vehicle positions include a multiple-award BPA issued October 1, 2024, with a $250,000 ceiling and performance period through September 30, 2026 (nine task orders, $8,512 combined potential value to date); a $150,000 ceiling BPA awarded October 1, 2023, with performance through September 30, 2024; and predecessor BPAs awarded October 1, 2022, and October 1, 2021, each carrying $150,000 ceilings. Across five identifiable BPA vehicles tracked in the source, Wahedi has received 79 task order calls with combined potential value of approximately $184 thousand.

Activity shows marked decline: 26 awards in 2021, 34 in 2022, dropping to nine in 2023 and 11 in 2024, with only two awards recorded for 2025 through October. Combined potential value across all 85 awards is $844 thousand, with $194 thousand obligated (23% realization rate). No recompete cliff data is present in the source, but the vendor's October 1, 2024 BPA carrying $250 thousand potential value represents the active vehicle anchoring near-term ordering authority. All work is performed in Washington, DC, and Wahedi competes without set-aside designations across full-and-open procurements, positioning the vendor as a commercial language services provider rather than a set-aside specialist.
