This Blanket Purchase Agreement Indefinite Delivery Vehicle was awarded by multiple federal agencies to procure language services from Legal Interpreting Services, Inc., doing business as Lis Solutions. The BPA serves as an ordering mechanism for various task orders to provide written translation, transcription, interpretation, and localization services in support of emergency management, immigration, and border security programs.

Task orders awarded against the BPA include language support for FEMA disaster recovery efforts such as wildfires, hurricanes, and other emergencies. Services are to be performed nationwide as well as in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Task orders have also been awarded by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services and Customs and Border Protection to provide translation and interpretation assistance for asylum, verification, and port of entry operations. Collectively, these task orders have a total potential value of over $50 million to be delivered over the next five years under firm fixed price and labor hour contracts.

The original solicitation sought foreign language translation and interpretation services without any set aside designations. As the awarded contractor, Lis Solutions utilizes its Multiple Award Schedule contract vehicle to fulfill various orders from agencies such as FEMA, USCIS, and CBP. These services are intended to facilitate communication with diverse populations during emergency response and immigration processes by providing vital information in multiple languages.
