Language Exchange Translation Services, LLC

Language Exchange Translation Services, LLC, a woman-owned small business based in Rockville, Maryland, provides translation and interpretation services to federal agencies as a subcontractor (67% of recent awards) and as a prime on a smaller volume of work. The vendor operates as a limited liability partnership and competes in the woman-owned small business set-aside category.

The vendor's federal footprint centers on two customer agencies. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Johnson Space Center accounts for six awards (67% of recent work), while the Office of the Secretary of Defense holds two awards carrying $453 thousand in combined potential value. Together these two agencies represent 89% of the vendor's award count. The dollar concentration is inverted from volume: OSD's two awards account for roughly 31% of combined potential value, signaling that OSD awards carry higher per-award magnitude than the NASA volume.

Language Exchange Translation Services operates almost exclusively as a subcontractor to The Boeing Company, delivering translation services to Boeing's International Space Station non-production work spanning six sub-awards between January 2023 and December 2023. Combined potential value across all federal awards stands at $1.5 million, with $1.2 million obligated. Recent sub-work is characterized in the source as International Space Station non-production support; the category concentration data shows the vendor's six awards map to guided missile and space vehicle manufacturing NAICS, with three awards coded to translation and interpretation services and two to transcription support administration.

Activity spiked sharply in 2023 with six awards, after a long dormancy spanning 2007 to 2022. The most recent award is dated December 2023, placing the vendor's recent work outside active pursuit window. The vendor's three prime awards in the underlying data are not detailed in the source beyond the aggregate count; the prime posture may reflect smaller or legacy work relative to the higher-volume Boeing subcontract relationships. No parent contract vehicles, GWACs, or standing IDIQs appear in the source.
