Lot Information

Off-site Transcription Services (OTS)

OTS involves the production of high volumes of low-value transcripts away from the court, hearing centre or venue, using a recording provided by the court. The supplier is responsible for producing the transcripts in line with HMCTS' rules, including the application of reporting restrictions (anonymisation) and the collection of relevant approvals and permissions. Services are provided based on agreed service bandings and capped units referred to as folios (72 words). OTS is split into two distinct areas, Crown Court transcription and HMCTS Approved Transcription Panel (ATP): a. Crown Courts contracts under OTS are contracted via Regional lots. Audio is recorded using a dedicated Digital Audio Recording, Transfer and Storage system (DARTS) and stored on the DARTS online portal for supplier access. Requestors are limited to one specific supplier based on the location of the hearing. b. ATP covers Civil & Family Courts and Tribunals. The ATP works on a panel basis where requestors can choose from any of the four suppliers. Audio is recorded using various Digital Audio Recording (DAR) formats after which audio is either downloaded onto physical media and posted to the relevant supplier or uploaded onto the relevant supplier's portal. For Lot 1 four Call-Off contracts are planned to be awarded on a Regional basis based on the highest tender scores. However the Authority reserves the right to amend the methodology for awarding future Call-off Contracts under the Framework.

Options: If the Authority proceeds with the Framework and contract awards, the initial Call-Off contracts under the Framework will be for an initial period of 2 years from the contract commencement date and thereafter, at the discretion of the Authority, for up to a further 2 years.
