About this vehicle
The Federal Emergency Management Agency awarded this Master IDIQ for telephonic and in-person interpretation services to the FEMA Texas National Processing Service Center on February 22, 2012, with ordering authority closed as of February 22, 2017—the vehicle is no longer active for new task orders.
Eight task orders totaling $55 million in combined potential value were issued under the vehicle between February 2012 and December 2015, of which $11.8 million (22 percent) was obligated. Three distinct prime contractors shared the work: Language Line, LLC dominated with five orders and $25.7 million in potential value, followed by Corporate Translation Services, LLC with two orders and $14.7 million, and Language Select, LLC with one order and $14.6 million. All task orders were issued as unrestricted (no set-aside) firm fixed-price delivery orders.
Work was concentrated within FEMA. The Texas National Processing Service Center placed the largest share by potential value ($29.3 million across two orders), followed by the Community Survivor Assistance Section ($10.8 million across five orders) and the Preparedness Section ($14.9 million across one order). The vehicle's ordering activity peaked in 2012 with three orders and again in 2015 with three orders; two orders were issued in 2014. Most task orders supported disaster response operations, particularly Hurricane Sandy recovery and the Unaccompanied Alien Children Program administered in coordination with Health and Human Services. Telephonic interpretation dominated the scope, with several orders delivering incremental funding for call-volume-driven services. Early orders carried ceiling values in the $14.6 million to $14.8 million range, though actual obligations were substantially lower due to de-obligations of unused funds during closeout modifications. The most recent order, issued December 22, 2015, obligated only $111 for final contract closure.
Since ordering closed in February 2017 and no new orders may be placed, this vehicle represents a closed opportunity.
