## Summary

Wilton Park procured interpretation and translation services for documents. This is a language-services requirement, covering the conversion of written material between languages and interpretation to support communication. The procurement was for Wilton Park, a central government public authority based at Wiston House in Steyning, West Sussex. The work relates to the buyer’s own documents and activities. The requirement was treated as a service under the light-touch regime. The recorded classification is CPV 79000000, a broad business-services category that also covers consulting, recruitment, printing and security; the stated requirement, however, is specifically interpretation and translation. The procurement was arranged as a single requirement rather than separate service areas, with the work associated with one lot.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Wilton Park used a below-threshold limited competition, meaning a limited group of suppliers was invited to compete rather than an open competition. Cultural Bridges was selected for the requirement. The contract was signed on 2 June 2026 and ran from 2 June 2026 to 31 July 2026. Its value was £10,417 excluding VAT and £12,500 including VAT. The award is recorded as active and the contract as active. The tender was evaluated through the limited competition route, with the published process identifying interpretation and translation services as the requirement. One lot covered the procurement, and the award was made against that lot.

This procurement indicates demand from Wilton Park for suppliers able to provide both document translation and interpretation services within a public-sector setting. A credible competitor would need reliable multilingual capability, strong written translation quality, and the ability to provide accurate interpretation when required. Document handling, confidentiality, responsiveness and consistent service delivery are likely to matter because the work concerns the buyer’s own documents and communications. The award to Cultural Bridges, an SME, shows that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller specialist provider rather than only a large outsourcing business. Suppliers with an established language-services operation, suitable quality controls and experience dealing with public authorities would be well placed to compete when comparable work returns to market.
