About this IDV
The U.S. Department of State Bureau of Administration has awarded a Multiple Award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Paradigm Language Consulting Services Inc., a for-profit language services firm headquartered in Carmel-By-The-Sea, California, under the "JAMES DIRGIN LSA" indefinite delivery vehicle. The BPA, with a ceiling value of $250,000 and a performance period from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2026, was awarded without set-aside designation through full and open competition. Paradigm specializes in comprehensive language services including foreign language translation, visa-related translation, and real-time interpretation support to facilitate diplomatic operations and global engagement across more than 100 countries. All work is performed in Washington, DC 20037, and structured as firm fixed price task orders issued under the BPA mechanism to enable rapid acquisition of time-sensitive language capabilities.
As of the award date, nine task orders have been issued under this BPA vehicle, with individual ceiling values ranging from $468 to $21,470.19, totaling approximately $49,194.19 in current obligations. The task orders, all awarded on October 1, 2024, specify completion dates between December 2024 and September 2025, reflecting the short-duration, high-frequency nature of diplomatic language support requirements. This BPA award represents a continuation of Paradigm's established relationship with the State Department Bureau of Administration, building on prior BPA IDVs valued at $150,000 for the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 periods. The progressive increase in the current BPA ceiling value to $250,000 demonstrates the agency's sustained reliance on Paradigm's language services to support critical diplomatic and administrative functions.
