Live Open and Closed Captioning Support

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires live open and post-production captioning services for approximately 200 annual events, including open agenda meetings, press conferences, public workshops, field hearings, and training programs. These requirements span various event lengths and geographic locations, primarily occurring at the FCC headquarters in Washington, DC, and other sites across the United States. The agency intends to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) through a multiple-award selection of two vendors whose quotes are determined to be the lowest price technically acceptable.

This solicitation, identified by number 273FCC24Q0016, is classified under NAICS 541930 for Translation and Interpretation Services and PSC R608 for Support- Administrative: Translation and Interpreting. The response deadline is April 22, 2024. Joyce Terry-Butler serves as the point of contact for this requirement.

The procurement documentation includes four attachments: the solicitation document, a pricing sheet, a vendor question template, and a consolidated list of government responses to vendor questions. Amendment 0001 was published on April 10, 2024, to incorporate the aforementioned government responses into the solicitation record.
