About the company
Conference Systems, Inc., doing business as C S I, a subsidiary of Visual Aids Electronics Corp., provides simultaneous interpretation equipment rental, installation, operation, and maintenance services to the U.S. Department of State and other federal agencies as a full-and-open prime contractor with no set-aside designations. C S I is headquartered in Lanham, Maryland, operates under primary NAICS 541930 (Translation and Interpretation Services) with secondary NAICS in equipment rental and manufacturing, and competes on unrestricted vehicles rather than small-business set-asides.
The Department of State dominates C S I's customer base — the State Department Bureau of Administration alone accounts for 109 awards valued at $41.2 million combined potential value, and when combined with other State Department offices (the Office of the Chief of Protocol, Bureau of International Organization Affairs, and others), State represents roughly 61% of C S I's combined potential value across all 57 customer agencies served. Recent concrete work includes a $650,088 delivery order from the Office of the Chief of Protocol on September 28, 2026, for simultaneous interpretation equipment rental, installation, operation, and maintenance in support of the G20 SI Florida summit in Doral, Florida; a $891,266 delivery order for the 2024 NATO 75th Anniversary Summit awarded February 29, 2024; and a $1.08 million award for remote simultaneous interpretation services supporting the U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in December 2022. C S I also executed a $3.37 million delivery order on August 1, 2023, from the Department of State for Office of Language Services equipment and services with a completion date of July 31, 2028.
C S I holds a $20 million multiple-award indefinite delivery contract (19AQMM23D0061) with the State Department Bureau of Administration, awarded April 1, 2023, and running through March 31, 2028. The source shows C S I has sat on prior State Department IDCs as well — notably Indefinite Delivery Contract SAQMPD04C1156 (58 task orders, $31.4 million combined potential value) and SAQMMA12D0132 (129 task orders, $8.2 million combined potential value). Task orders under these vehicles have funded high-level diplomatic events including the U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit, the NATO 75th Anniversary Summit, the Quad Summit, the Summit for Democracy, and the ASEAN Summit.
Activity has declined over the past three years — eight awards in 2022, seventeen in 2023, five in 2024, two in 2025, and two in 2026 through late September — though this reflects the bundled nature of C S I's State Department work under large IDC vehicles rather than transaction volume. Of the $89 million combined potential value across all 369 prime awards, $31.5 million (35%) has been obligated. Within the next twenty-four months, C S I faces recompete exposure on two awards totaling $4 million. Beyond State Department work, C S I has secondary customer relationships with the Department of Energy (Office of International Affairs for Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation ministerial interpretation services), the Department of Transportation (Office of the Secretary for APEC transportation ministerial meetings), the Department of Health and Human Services (APEC event interpretation equipment), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (APEC conference system), and Customs and Border Protection (translation equipment rental), typically through time-and-materials or firm-fixed-price purchase orders for event-specific simultaneous interpretation and audio-visual support.
