Dasilva-Ducelus Corporation

Dasilva-Ducelus Corporation, doing business as Roosevelt Ducelus, provides translation, interpretation, cultural advising, and foreign area expertise to the Department of State as a prime contractor on full-and-open blanket purchase agreements. The company is a minority-owned, Black American-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Lawrenceville, Georgia, with work performed in Washington, DC.

Roosevelt Ducelus operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) under three successive blanket purchase agreements with the Department of State Bureau of Administration, each running a calendar year cycle. The vendor competes without set-aside designation across all awards, meaning it wins in full-and-open competition against unrestricted competition pools. The company's entire award footprint—27 awards spanning translation and interpretation services under PSC Support-Administrative—centers on the same customer: the Department of State Bureau of Administration (20 awards, $799 thousand combined potential value) and the parent Department of State (7 awards, $47 thousand combined potential value), representing 100% of recent activity.

Activity accelerated sharply in 2024, when the vendor received 13 awards following single awards in both 2021 and 2022 and two awards in 2023. This growth reflects the October 2024 award of a $250,000 ceiling multiple-award BPA (award date October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2026), under which the vendor has placed 19 task orders totaling $103 thousand in combined potential value. The vendor also holds positions on two prior-year BPA vehicles: a $150,000 ceiling BPA running through September 30, 2024, and an expired $150,000 ceiling BPA that ran through September 30, 2023. Representative current work includes a $9,432 BPA call for language services to support diplomatic and international operations (completion August 29, 2026), an $8,300 call for interpretation, translation, cultural guidance, and regional expertise (completion December 21, 2025), and a $7,968 call for on-demand interpretation and cultural advising in support of diplomatic operations (completion October 10, 2026). Combined potential value across all 27 awards totals $846 thousand, with only $146 thousand obligated to date (17% of potential), indicating most work remains unexecuted. One award (combined potential value $6 thousand) reaches completion inside the next twenty-four months, exposing minimal recompete surface. The vendor has no subcontract footprint and holds no positions on government-wide vehicles, IDIQs, or other multi-agency vehicles.
