    Description

    The CTA has an Agreement with the PWGSC Translation Bureau for the provision of translation services each fiscal year; however, due to volume and tight deadlines, it requires additional contracts with private firms.

    The CTA requires the services of two or more private firms to provide translation of texts of the CTA. The majority of the texts will be provided in English to be translated into the French language.

    There will also be texts prepared in French that will require translation into the English language.

    The contractors must provide texts that accurately reflect the originating text. These texts must also be of high quality and reflect the terminology of the CTA.

    All translated texts must be provided in the same format (e.g. Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel) as the original text provided by the CTA.

    All translated texts must be provided within the deadlines set by the CTA. Requested turnaround times to completion as well as the level (normal or urgent) will be mutually agreed upon by both parties at the time that the call-up is raised.

    Translation service requests will be required on short notice and on an urgent basis. This requires the contractors to demonstrate flexibility and quick response time in order to guarantee availability to complete the work.
