Description

Norfolk County Council on behalf of INTRAN wishes to establish a multi provider framework agreement for the provision of professional public interpreting, translation and related language services.

INTRAN is a public and third sector multi-agency partnership that ensures people who are Deaf, and those with limited or no English proficiency, have equitable access to information and services through the provision of professional interpreting, translation, transcription and related language support services.

The current framework agreement ends on 30.6.2022.

It should be noted that the proposed framework is for providers of interpreting and translation and not for translators and interpreters themselves.
