Portuguese-Pro International Inc.

Portuguese-Pro International Inc., a woman-owned and minority-owned small business based in Hallandale Beach, Florida, delivers translation, interpretation, and localization services to the Department of State as a prime contractor on a non-set-aside, full-and-open competitive basis. The vendor operates as a Subchapter S Corporation and has held federal contracts continuously since 2008.

Portuguese-Pro's customer base is highly concentrated. The Department of State Bureau of Administration accounts for 19 of 24 awards (88% coverage by count) and $737 thousand of the combined $765 thousand potential value across recent work. The remaining two awards derive from the Department of State proper and total $16 thousand. This single-agency, single-bureau concentration reflects Portuguese-Pro's anchored position as a language-services provider supporting State Department diplomatic events, foreign policy initiatives, and global operations, including work on the International Women of Courage program.

The vendor operates primarily through blanket purchase agreements issued by the Bureau of Administration under the MARIA CAROLINA PARAVENTI LSA program. Portuguese-Pro holds multiple-award BPAs with ceiling values ranging from $150,000 to $250,000. Five task orders issued under the current BPA (190PRL25A0460, running through September 2026) carry $47 thousand in combined potential value; four task orders under the prior-year BPA (190PRL24A0460) total $32 thousand. Earlier BPAs from 2023 and 2022 remain on the books with one or two residual task orders each. Individual task orders typically value between $3,600 and $14,300 and are structured as firm fixed-price calls with ultimate completion dates ranging from several months to one year out. Work is performed in Washington, D.C.

Activity has remained modest and sporadic. The vendor received two awards in 2021, two in 2022, five in 2023, four in 2024, and two in 2025. Combined obligated dollars across all awards stand at $115 thousand (15% of the combined potential value of $765 thousand), indicating that task orders under these BPAs are called in small tranches and invoiced incrementally. Portuguese-Pro operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data. The vendor's capability portfolio is monolithic: all 24 awards fall under the same NAICS code (Translation and Interpretation Services) and PSC code (Support—Administrative: Translation and Interpreting), reflecting a highly specialized business model with minimal diversification across customer agencies, contract vehicles, or service lines.
