About this IDV
Desoto Translating Services, Inc., a minority-owned and woman-owned small business, was awarded a multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Administration on October 1, 2024, with an overall indefinite delivery vehicle ceiling value of $250,000 and an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026. Under this BPA, the contractor provides comprehensive language services including translation, interpretation, and associated linguistic expertise to support the Bureau of Administration's diplomatic, operational, and program-related requirements. The services span multiple functional areas including international cooperation programs, legislative affairs, trade promotion initiatives, emergency preparedness and COVID-19 response efforts, educational exchanges, and cultural programs. All performance occurs in Washington, D.C., and the contract carries no set-aside designation, indicating competitive selection based on demonstrated capability. The BPA structure enables the federal agency to issue firm fixed-price task orders on an as-needed basis, providing operational flexibility in procuring language access services across the State Department's diverse mission requirements.
As of October 1, 2024, eleven task orders have been issued against this BPA vehicle, with individual call values ranging from $800 to $13,731, and completion dates extending through October 2025. The task orders collectively represent approximately $66,279 in executed work against the $250,000 vehicle ceiling. Each task order is structured as a firm fixed-price contract for language services, with performance locations consistently specified as Washington, D.C. 20037. This BPA arrangement builds upon Desoto Translating Services' established track record with the Bureau of Administration, with the company having held successive BPA vehicles since at least 2003, during which ceiling values have progressively increased from nominal amounts to the current $250,000 authorization, reflecting the agency's sustained requirement for professional language services to facilitate effective government communication and diplomatic operations.
