Translation, Editing, Concordance and proofreading Services (English-French) and/or (French-English)

The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) wishes to enter into two (2) contracts with a vendor(s) (hereafter referred to as the “proponent”); one (1) for the provision of English-French translation, editing, concordance check and proofreading services (Stream 1) and one (1) for the provision of French-English translation, editing, concordance check and proofreading services (Stream 2), on an as requested basis. CMHC may require other miscellaneous ad hoc work from time to time throughout the life of the contract resulting from this RFP.
