Description:
In accordance with the Official Languages Act, events of the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD) are held in both official languages. For certain events, all content must be available in both official languages. Interpreters are therefore mandated to simultaneously interpret speeches and interventions from French to English or from English to French. The Corporate Communications Team (LDC) at DFATD is seeking remote simultaneous interpretation services for corporate events on an as-needed basis to ensure full bilingualism at key events. The objective of this solicitation is to establish multiple standing offers to a maximum of four (4) offerors who will provide remote simultaneous interpretation services for a contract period of eight months and three annual renewal option periods. The Offeror must provide remote simultaneous interpretation services for various events based on source documents that can be provided in advance, upon request. Events vary in length depending on their nature and the number of questions. Most events are no longer than 90 minutes. Services will be provided in English or French, or in a combination of both languages. If the event is bilingual, the interpreter will need to be able to switch easily from English to French and from French to English, as needed. The Offeror is required to propose, at a minimum, one qualified interpreter with the experience and knowledge necessary to perform the tasks described in 5.0 Scope of Services. Should the services of any individual resource prove unsatisfactory, the Offeror will be informed verbally, then in writing, and ultimately may be asked to replace the resource in question. Any resource subsequently replacing one of the proposed resources will be required to meet or exceed all the evaluation criteria results of the predecessor.
