Blanket Purchase Agreement 190PRL24A0366

The Department of State Bureau of Administration awarded a multiple award blanket purchase agreement to Fisher Lawrence, doing business as Nusantara Language Services, to provide language services. The potential value of the agreement is $150,000. Task orders issued against the agreement include two firm fixed price calls. The first call, valued at $585, was awarded on October 1, 2023 for language services to be performed in Washington, D.C. through the end of the fiscal year. The second call, valued at $6,045, was also awarded on October 1, 2023 for language services with a period of performance from October 1, 2023 through November 18, 2023 in Washington, D.C.

The blanket purchase agreement and subsequent task order calls aim to procure translation and interpretation support services for various State Department programs headquartered in the national capital area. As the State Department operates globally and conducts diplomacy in multiple languages, these services are likely intended to facilitate communications with foreign partners and support international operations through the provision of linguists. No set-aside designations or subcontracting arrangements are identified in the award documentation provided.
