What this contract is for

Agency: GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION / FEDERAL ACQUISITION SERVICE
Location: Washington, DC
Set-aside: 8a Competed
NAICS: 541930 - Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (general category)
Scope: Federal

Pursuant to Section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, the Department carries out an affirmative action plan for the hiring and advancement of people with disabilities.

A very basic concept of affirmative action and nondiscrimination is reasonable accommodation.

With respect to people who are deaf or hard of hearing, sign language or oral interpreters are needed to ensure full and effective communication in carrying out work, responsibilities and in meeting the mission and goals of HUDs various offices.

HUD presently employs four deaf or hard-of-hearing people at its Headquarters location in Washington, DC who require assistance to communicate within the workplace on a full-time basis, which includes spoken, video conference, and telephone translation.

Additional interpreting services may be required to support new hires in accordance with Section 501 of Rehabilitation Act.

The Contractor may be required to travel to HUDs regional offices to provide interpreting services on an ad hoc basis.

Several of these employees hold jobs which require daily communication with other staff members, as well as the public.

During Fiscal Year 2021, the Department purchased approximately 9,600 hours of interpreting services to accommodate people with disabilities.

Official solicitation and documents

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
