Overview
Contract Award's Details : Health And Social Work Services Gloucestershire County Council Shire Hall For the attention of: Mrs Ann Sadler GL1 2TG Gloucester United Kingdom Telephone: +44 1452583401 E-mail: ann.sadler@gloucestershire.gov.uk Internet address(es): General address of t Translation Services Contract award notice: Provision of Translation and Interpretation services. The United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) is a world leader in the provision of navigational charts and publications and enjoys a high reputation for the quality and accuracy of its products and services. This requirement is for a 3 year Enabling Contract with an option to extend by up to one further year for the translation of hydrographic information from foreign (i.e. non-English) languages into English, and for a small amount of translation from English into foreign languages. This also includes providing an ad hoc and much smaller interpreting service, via telephone, or possibly face to face, too. The UKHO receives a considerable amount of foreign maritime information on a daily basis. The amount and frequency fluctuates considerably and, as such, no guarantee can be given as to the volume. Most of this information comes in the form of Foreign Government Notices to Mariners (FGNMs) published by national Hydrographic Offices around the world. These are typically estimated up to 1270 words in length, although documents such as letters, memoranda, etc., may contain more or less. The UKHO may require an estimated maximum 60 FGNMs or other documents to be translated per month. Larger publications requiring translation, such as Sailing Directions, may be received approximately 12 times per year. Each publication will vary in size >100,000 words estimated. The UKHO also may have translation work in the form of management letters, memos, briefs and agreement documents. The UKHO Commercial team has also had the following items translated; UKHO digital product literature, marketing collateral brochures and advertisements, and some UKHO website pages. These Commercial documents are usually required for translation into a foreign language(s), primarily, but not limited to, European and Asian market customers. Commercial requests are more ad hoc than regular requirements, currently. A minority of information may be of higher security classification. All of this information needs to be translated before staff at the UKHO can assess it for dangers to navigation. The vocabulary used can be highly technical and it is important that this information is translated accurately, together with geographical place names (where required) and coordinates. Therefore a prompt, accurate, reliable and efficient translation service is essential to UKHO business. Work to be translated will be issued by the UKHO as required. The time given for translation and delivery of this work will depend on the nature and size of the information. The timescales required shall vary between 24 hours and seven working days from receipt of request for smaller items, and ten working weeks from receipt of request for larger publications. Up to an estimated 95 % of FGNMs may be required within the 24 to 48 ho United Kingdom Contract value : See in details Contractors : ICE CREATES LIMITED See in details 04/11/2016 04/02/2017 8944743 05/11/2016 UKHO UK Hydrographic Office, Admiralty Way For the attention of: Mr Stuart Speer TA1 2DN Taunton UNITED KINGDOM Telephone: +44 1823723442 Fax: +44 1823326885 E-mail: stuart.speer@ukho.gov.uk Internet address(es): Genera Address : United Kingdom United Kingdom Contract Awards United Kingdom 390882-2016 See in details 05/02/2017 See in details
