About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 is soliciting American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation services for federal employees at the Central Texas VA Health Care System (CTVHCS). The contract requires qualified interpreters to provide sign language services in various professional settings including workplace, classroom, and medical environments, with interpreters demonstrating fluency, customer service skills, and ability to work in challenging professional contexts. Vendors must submit comprehensive proposals addressing seven key technical evaluation tasks including interpreter qualifications and experience, licensing documentation, two references for similar contracts, a detailed pricing schedule, and compliance certifications. The evaluation process requires vendors to provide convincing rationale for meeting government requirements rather than simply restating them, with specific attention to subcontracting compliance and annual representations through the System for Award Management (SAM). Quotes are due by June 20, 2025, at 12:00 PM CST, with a performance period estimated to begin September 1, 2025.

This opportunity is designated as a total Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside under NAICS code 541930 with a $22.5 million size standard. No current contractors or incumbents are identified in the solicitation documents. While specific award values are not disclosed, the solicitation indicates substantial scope given the multi-location service requirement and potential for a base period plus four one-year option periods. Services will be performed at multiple locations including the Olin E. Teague Veterans' Center in Temple, Texas, and several Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOCs) throughout Texas. The contract structure suggests a multi-year engagement with the base performance period starting approximately September 1, 2025, and extending through potential option years that could span up to five years total.
