Description of the contract

Applicants are invited to form part of a panel to supply translation services. S4C is tendering for framework agreements for translation services for letters, documents, reports, marketing materials, guidelines and policies, the Annual Report and Accounts and simultaneous translation. From time to time, S4C will also require the translation of legal documents. Translation from Welsh to English and also from English to Welsh will be required. Translators will be expected to provide a correction service where mistakes are found in the translated document.

We are looking for a limited number of suppliers (a maximum of 6) to form a framework of suppliers. Tenderers will be required to show extensive and successful experience in the field.

Suppliers may apply for the translation of specific documentation, e.g. legal documents, or for simultaneous translation only (if they have expertise in these fields).

Suppliers who form part of this framework will be offered translation work by S4C as the need arises. The work will be on a project or projects basis as required.

S4C intends to offer individual agreements to successful applicants in order to form the framework of suppliers. However, please note that being part of the framework does not guarantee that you will be offered any work. As the work under the contract is as required, the total work available to the suppliers is dependent upon S4C’s internal workload and human and financial resources from time to time. Following the appointment of the framework of suppliers which are able to provide the services in the above fields, S4C intends to offer the work in the first place to the supplier who offers the best value for money considering the nature of the work. Where it is not possible for that supplier to complete the work within the timetable noted, then S4C will offer the work to the next supplier who offers the best value for money etc.
