American Sign Language Training, Cultural Competency and Video Production

The issuing agency is seeking a vendor to provide American Sign Language training, cultural competency instruction, and video production services. The agency needs to train its onsite staff in key ASL greetings, phrases, agency-specific vocabulary, and animal species signs. Additionally, the agency requires foundational training in Deaf culture and best practices for respectful engagement with Deaf and hard of hearing guests. To reinforce this staff training, the agency requires the creation of short, scripted, filmed, and edited video modules for ongoing learning. The project also covers the production of ASL-accessible video content, including picture-in-picture formatting, for select destination discovery exhibit videos and educational media. Finally, the vendor must develop short ASL video segments featuring the signed names of key species identified by the agency. Bidders must perform all work onsite and must be located within the United States. The agency is requesting budget proposals for a contract period that will run for one year. All questions regarding this opportunity must be submitted no later than July 07, 2026, and final responses can be submitted digitally via email or online.
