Under the agreement, multiple call orders have been placed for American Sign Language support services, Communication Access Real Time Translation, reader services, sighted assistance services, and personal assistant services. The call orders have values ranging from approximately $74,000 to $601,000 and period of performances from 30 days to just over one year.
