The FedRelay ASL Interpreting contract is expiring. MAIG Interpreting is ready to support a smooth transition.

Why do I need to replace FedRelay Interpreting with MAIG Interpreting?

With the expiration of the FedRelay contract, agencies need a new trusted source in place of their FedRelay Interpreting (Video Remote Interpreting) services to foster an inclusive work environment for consumers who are Deaf and hard of hearing (D/HH). MAIG can provide Interpreting which is no longer covered by GSA and will not be covered by FCC. MAIG can provide these services through our approved GSA MAS schedule or a direct 8(a) award.

How does MAIG Interpreting compare to FedRelay Interpreting?

MAIG’s ASL interpreters are all nationally certified through RID and/or NAD and qualified to transmit accurate interpreting using a variety of modalities and formats, including ASL, PSE, team interpreting using CDIs, tactile and protactile Deaf-Blind interpreting, and low vision/restricted vision interpreting. Our providers establish a comfortable environment conducive to communication when working with their clients. MAIG Interpreting service providers are highly qualified to interpret in various settings, including conferences, meetings, seminars, training courses, interviews, public speaking events, and special events. Ensuring a smooth transition from FedRelay Interpreters, MAIG Interpreting has one of the largest and most skilled pools of qualified MAIG ASL interpreters in the nation, maintaining an active roster of more than 450 interpreters across the US.

Video Relay Service (VRS), and other true relay services, are being transitioned from GSA over to the FCC, and agencies can continue to receive those services through the FCC.
