## Summary

Fife Council has awarded a contract under the title "CFM0068 - Provision of Translation Services" in the industry category of general public services. The procurement falls within the procurement stage of Award, with the notice dated 1st August 2025. This contract was issued as a call-off from the Scottish Government framework agreement SP-21-001 and covers services from 10th June 2024 to 31st March 2025. The location of the service provision is throughout Fife, with the buyer's headquarters located at Fife House, Glenrothes, UK. The procurement method adopted was limited, following an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, an approach justified by its classification outside the directive's scope.

The contract, valued at £18,113.40, was awarded to three large suppliers: DA Languages Ltd, Global Connections (Scotland) Ltd, and Global Language Services Ltd. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses offering interpreting, translation, and transcription services to engage in a framework agreement with a regional authority, thus enhancing their regional presence and potentially accessing wider governmental contracts. Large enterprises with established service delivery capabilities and experience in coordinated frameworks are particularly well-suited for these opportunities, fostering growth through stable and continuous engagement with public sector clients.
