- Description
- 1. Introduction. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville, is issuing a Request for Information for expert services in the area of Sign language interpreting in support of hearing/speech-impaired IT personnel employed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Corporate Information Office. The NAICS code for this procurement is 541930. Interpreter 2. Background. The United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) is required to obtain sign language interpreting and on-site interpretation services (Rehabilitation act of 1973 and Americans with Disabilities Act) for its deaf employee located at the USACE headquarters in Washington DC. These services are needed to provide: (a) on-site sign language interpreting for the USACE employee and (b) additional interpreting for meetings and training activities requiring more than two hours of continuous interpreting. USACE's deaf employee is located at the USACE headquarters within the GAO building in Washington D.C. Sign language services are needed to communicate information, work assignments, training courses, and staff meetings. The employee is profoundly deaf without the ability to communicate through verbal means. Additionally, interpreting services may be needed occasionally by applicants, or for USACE sponsored activities that may be attended by deaf persons from outside the agency. Also, it is reasonable to assume that the need for interpreting will increase over the next five years. 3. Scope. The scope of this action is to provide contract services support to USACE, Corporate Information Directorate, Governance and Architecture Division (CECI-A) organization in support of the CECI-A employees and in compliance with legally mandated requirements. 4. General Requirements. All requirements can be found the attached Performance Work Statement for the subjected requirement.
