Single Source Justification for Temporary Quarters (TQ) Accommodation

The U.S. Embassy Bangkok has issued a single source justification to award a purchase order to FICO VENTURE CO., LTD., doing business as MARRIOTT EXECUTIVE APARTMENTS TOWN HALL - BANGKOK, for Temporary Quarters (TQ) accommodation. This procurement is necessary to provide suitable lodging for U.S. government personnel assigned to the embassy, with the selected vendor offering specialized, long-term accommodation services tailored to diplomatic and federal requirements. The justification cites the unique nature of the lodging requirements and the vendor’s established capability to meet them, which precludes competition under standard procedures. The solicitation number for this action is 19TH2026P1478, posted on July 29, 2026, under NAICS code 721110, which classifies it as a hotel and lodging service. The purchasing agency is listed as the U.S. Embassy Bangkok, though the organizational contact information incorrectly references the International Boundary and Water Commission: U.S.-Mexico, likely a data entry error. Primary point of contact for procurement matters is Ramon Menendez-Carreira, reachable at BangkokGSOProcurement@state.gov, with Katekarn Chandsoda as secondary contact. The place of performance is in Bangkok, Thailand, aligning with the vendor’s location and the mission’s operational needs. The action is non-competitive and based on justified sole source grounds, with the official record accessible via the SAM.gov link provided.
