Purchase Order 15DD0S26P00000037

The Drug Enforcement Administration awarded a $41,201.60 purchase order contract to the City of Philadelphia, acting through its District Attorney's Office, for translation services. The contract, awarded on March 25, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of May 3, 2026, is structured as a labor-hour pricing agreement with no set-aside designation. Performance will take place at William Penn Annex East in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The translation services support DEA law enforcement operations by facilitating document translation, language interpretation, and communication assistance for investigations related to drug trafficking, organized crime, and serious offenses.

This award continues an established relationship between the DEA and the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office, which has consistently provided linguistic support through recurring purchase order contracts valued between approximately $10,000 and $41,200. The District Attorney's Office operates as a registered federal contractor and has positioned itself as a critical resource partner for the DEA's investigative and operational needs. Beyond this translation contract vehicle, the office has diversified its federal partnerships to include grant-funded initiatives addressing wrongful conviction review, victim services delivery through technology platforms, and specialized prosecution of elder abuse cases, demonstrating its broader engagement with federal criminal justice priorities.
