Summary of the contracting process

The Independent Office For Police Conduct is seeking language services, encompassing face-to-face interpreting, telephone interpreting, video remote interpreting, translation, and transcription, throughout various regions in the United Kingdom including North West, East Midlands, and London. The procurement process, classified under Translation services (CPV code 79530000) and Interpretation services (CPV code 79540000), is currently at the Award stage, having concluded the tender period on 18th October 2021. The awarded contract is valued at £252,000 and will commence on 22nd December 2021, running until 21st December 2024.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for providers of language services, particularly those capable of delivering interpreting and translation solutions across multiple delivery modes and locations. Businesses specialising in language support, including large-scale service providers like DA Languages Limited, would be well-positioned to compete given the comprehensive service expectations outlined in the contract. Companies that can demonstrate experience in working with public sector organisations, especially in a selective procurement environment, may find this opportunity particularly beneficial for expanding their client base.
