- Description
- The Department of Justice intends to issue a request for proposal for on-site and telephonic language interpreter services in support of the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR). EOIR administers and interprets Federal immigration laws and regulations through the conduct of immigration court proceedings, appellate reviews, and administrative hearings in individual cases. EOIR carries out these responsibilities through its three main components: (1) The Office of the Chief Immigration Judge (OCIJ), which oversees all the Immigration Courts and their proceedings; (2) The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), which hears appeals of decisions made in individual cases by Immigration Judges, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) District Directors, or other immigration officials; and, (3) The Office of the Chief Administrative Hearing Officer (OCAHO), which resolves cases concerning employer sanctions, document fraud, and immigration-related employment discrimination. EOIR currently has 104 staff interpreter positions (primarily Spanish). EOIR will rely on contract interpreter services to augment the in-house staff and to provide interpreters for matters involving other languages. These services will be required for immigration court proceedings on an as needed basis throughout the fifty United States, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories including, but not limited to, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam. It is anticipated that a single contract for language interpreter services will be awarded with a period of performance of one (1) base year and five (5) option periods of one year each. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 541930, Translation and Interpretation Services, with a size standard of $6.5 million. Due date for receipt of proposals will be January 15, 2009. All information regarding this procurement, including the solicitation document and amendments, will only be made available electronically on the General Service Administration’s “Federal Business Opportunities” web site, http://www.fedbizopps.gov. Hard copies of the solicitation itself will not be available.
