Description

Portsmouth City Council (the 'council') are planning to retender for the delivery of interpretation and translation services for Portsmouth City Council. Our current spend is in the region of £50,000 per annum.

The purpose of this engagement is to share with you information about our requirements along with our draft specification and ask for interested providers to respond to a number of questions along with providing any further feedback.

Any information a provider shares could be used to assist drafting the final specification.

We are also using the process to 'test the market' to obtain a better understanding of the level of interest from potential providers in delivering this service to the council.
