About this vehicle
The Department of Justice Criminal Division established a Master IDIQ for language services on June 1, 2018, with a combined shared ceiling of $50 million and a final ordering deadline of May 31, 2023 — the vehicle is now closed to new task orders. Ordering ceased more than three years ago, making this vehicle inactive for business development purposes.
The scope encompasses translation, interpretation, transcription, source material review and summarization, and other linguistic support services for DOJ Criminal Division objectives and programs. All 30 awarded task orders authorize performance anywhere in the United States and operate on a time-and-materials pricing basis. Task orders ran on a consistent cycle: six orders annually between 2018 and 2022, with the most recent task orders awarded in August 2022 and completing in July 2024. The combined task-order potential value totals $21 million, of which $20.6 million (98 percent) has already been obligated, leaving minimal runway for new work.
Competition is evenly distributed among three primes, each holding exactly 10 orders. Manpowergroup Public Sector Inc. leads by potential value at $10.8 million combined across its orders, followed by JTG, Inc. at $7.8 million, and Lionbridge Global Solutions II Inc. at $2.4 million. All 30 orders were awarded as unrestricted (no set-aside designation). Customer concentration is absolute: DOJ Criminal Division issued all 30 orders against its own funding.
Task-order values range from approximately $116,804 to $2.5 million in ceiling value, with typical orders in the $300,000 to $900,000 range. Individual task-order durations were standardized at 12 months, completing on July 31 of each contracting year. The vehicle's ordering period spanned four and a half years (June 2018 through May 2023), and the last active deliverables concluded in July 2024. No successor vehicle or recompete is evident from the source material.
