Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Hampshire County Council as the buying organisation for the "Managed Service Provider for Translation and Interpretation Language Services." This contract falls under the translation services category (CPV code 79530000) and encompasses the South East and South West regions of the United Kingdom. The procurement method utilised is selective, specifically through a call-off from an ESPO framework agreement. The contract period commenced on 1st October 2021 and extends until 31st March 2022, resulting in a total contract value of £185,000, with a minimum threshold of £25,000 for bidders. The award status is currently active.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in translation and interpretation services to expand their reach and client base. Given the nature of the contract, companies with experience in language services, especially those capable of flexible and quick service delivery across multiple regions, will be well-suited to compete. While the current supplier is Capita Translation and Interpreting Limited, the arrangement allows for future competitors to prepare for the impending re-procurement phase. This is an excellent opportunity for firms interested in long-term contracts within the public sector, particularly in providing essential language services to governmental bodies.
