Southeast Language Associates, Inc. (SLA) dba inlingua Language and Intercultural Services is pleased to announce it has been awarded a GSA (General Service Administration) Federal Supply Service Contract (GS-10F-0095U). SLA dba inlingua successfully met all the GSA requirements for being a government supplier and will offer its services directly to the Federal purchasing agencies.

The first step in being awarded the contract was to obtain a Past Performance Report from Open Ratings. After evaluating various key aspects like reliability, quality, accuracy, and customer service from several of inlingua’s customers, the report showed that SLA dba inlingua’s overall rating was the highest level obtainable.

After all negotiations were completed, the GSA determined the prices offered to be fair and reasonable, and the GSA contract was granted to SLA dba inlingua.

Rosine Sauvage, CEO of inlingua states: “We view this contract as a milestone for our company because it will simplify the process of offering our products to the Federal Government. It will also provide a better opportunity of presenting and promoting the inlingua method. We look forward to serving our Federal Government customers through GSA”.
