Description
The purpose of this procurement exercise is to establish a framework for Bristol City Council Translations and Interpreting Service.
TIS (Translation and Interpreting Service) have an internal offering and provide language services across the council and external organisations spanning all sectors. TIS cover Bristol and neighbouring areas and provide a first class, confidential interpreting, and translation service in English and over 50 other languages. The Interpreters and Translators are highly experienced and professional, offering an effective and efficient service. Due to high demand and rare languages, TIS cannot always meet the service demand with the in-house interpreters and translators and seek to commission a provider to support the in-house team.
