Jularic-Beekman Julijana

Jularic-Beekman Julijana, doing business as Contract Interpreter, is a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship based in New York that provides foreign language interpretation and translation services to the Department of State as a prime contractor on a full-and-open basis, holding no set-asides across its federal portfolio. The firm has maintained a consistent contracting relationship with the State Department's Bureau of Administration since at least 2019, competing on multiple-award blanket purchase agreements with no subcontracting footprint.

Contract Interpreter's work centers on specialized linguistic support for State Department diplomatic initiatives, international engagement programs, and policy implementation across diverse domains. Recent representative work includes a $150 thousand BPA awarded on October 1, 2022 with task orders for interpretation and translation services spanning renewable energy promotion, cybersecurity initiatives, climate change discussions, and environmental engagement — all performed in Washington, D.C. The vendor holds a current multiple-award BPA (ceiling $250 thousand, period through September 30, 2026) awarded October 1, 2024, under which five task orders valued from $322 to $8,700 have been issued to support interreligious dialogues, missing persons reunification in the Balkans, renewable energy initiatives, and the International Visitor Leadership Program. Individual task orders typically range from $1,000 to $15,000 in value.

The Department of State Bureau of Administration accounts for 41 of 52 prime awards (approximately 79% of the portfolio) and $1 million of $1.1 million in combined potential value across the portfolio. The remaining two awards from the Department of State carry $17 thousand in combined potential value. Contract Interpreter holds positions on five consecutive multiple-award blanket purchase agreements issued by the Bureau of Administration, with BPA ceilings ranging from $100 thousand (FY 2021) to $250 thousand (FY 2024–2026). The most active current vehicle is the FY 2023 BPA (190PRL23A0353, $150 thousand ceiling) with seven task orders totaling $197 thousand in combined potential value. The firm's activity has remained relatively flat — five awards in 2021 through eight awards per year in 2022–2024 — with only two awards recorded for 2025 to date in the source snapshot.

The vendor's federal footprint is entirely interpretation and translation work (52 awards under NAICS 561410 / PSC R299 — Translation and Interpreting Services). Contract Interpreter performs all work directly as prime with no subcontractors. Obligated dollars total $281 thousand against $1.1 million in combined potential value (26% execution rate), consistent with the vendor's position as a task-order recipient under indefinite-delivery blanket purchase agreements where government utilization varies by operational need. The firm was registered in System for Award Management in November 2004 and has worked exclusively with a single federal customer across a twenty-year period.
