Summary of the contracting process

The Nottingham City Council is extending an opportunity for tendering under the title "CPU 2235 Translation & Interpretation Services," aimed at providing various translation and interpretation services across the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. This tender is at the award stage, following a completed procurement process labelled as an open procedure. The contract, which has a total value of £1,000,000 and a minimum threshold of £500,000, will be active from June 1, 2018, to May 31, 2020, with potential extensions. Tenders for this opportunity were accepted until April 13, 2018.

This contract is poised to create substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in translation and interpretation services, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations. Suppliers can bid for one or more of the four distinct lots: verbal face-to-face interpretation, sensory impairment, telephone and video interpretation, and translation services. Given that up to three contractors will be awarded a contract for each lot, this presents an accessible opportunity for qualified suppliers to engage and expand their operations within the public sector.
