CLARIFICATIONS
In regards to your question: In particular the point about all data being retained. For interpretation services, the industry standard would be to not save or retain any call data to protect, client and patients privacy. Kindly confirm either way if this is required.
Answers in red: This is a requirement. There should be privacy guidelines intact so that the saved data would only be accessible by the authorized member/account.
- Can you please tell us the anticipated/historical monthly volumes for written translation services, over the phone interpretation (OPI) services, and video remote interpretation (VRI) services?
We cannot anticipate this, as the need for these services will vary across our over 1,300 members and we have not had a contract for these services before.
- Would you be willing to share with us the current rates for the services listed in the first bullet?
As we do not have a current contract for these services, we do not have any rates to provide.
- If applicable, how do you currently process your translation and localization (T&L) documents?
This is not applicable as we do not have a current contract.
- "Translation Services System Requirement 1: Provides on-demand translation services available at any time from any type of the following devices: smartphone, tablet, desktop, laptop, and/or landline phone." Does "translation services" in this context apply only to written translation services, i.e. do those services need to be available on demand?
This does not apply to written documentation translation services only- this also applies to the OPI and VRI services.
- "The guaranteed turnaround time for document translation services may not exceed one (1) business day." Does this refer to the turnaround for a quote, or for the translation itself? If the latter, turnaround time would depend on the size of the document that needs to be translated. What is the maximum number of words that would need to be translated within 1 business day?
This is the guaranteed turnaround time for a quote, which should detail how long the translation itself will take. The quoted time shall be as quick as reasonably possible.
- "Section II: Translator Requirements 2: Translators must have verified references and criminal background checks on file with the translation services company." Does this apply to employees only, or to freelance translators as well?
All translators must provide this documentation to the awarded contractor for availability to the member if they so request it.
- The DM7463 pricing sheet asks for a single cost per word for written document translation. It is standard in the industry to have separate rates per language. This takes into account the scarcity of translators for rarer languages and the abundance of translators for more common languages. Averaging all of these into one single rate will likely result in you paying a higher rate for common languages. Is it permissible to instead submit pricing by the language?
Please provide the best pricing for the service. If you feel best pricing is by language, you can provide pricing per word per language.
- The provided rate sheet does not include fields for minimum per-project fees or for discounted translation memory rates. Can we add these to the existing sheet and/or submit our full rates in a separate sheet?
If you require such fees, you may add an additional sheet to your bid package detailing these fees.
- Are we required to bid on all services?
Please bid all services your company provides. If you do not offer a certain service, please write "NO BID" in that section. Do not enter as a "0" as this will be interpreted as bidding $0 pricing.
- What is the anticipated contract value?
We cannot anticipate this, as the need for these services will vary across our over 1,300 members and we have not had a contract for these services before.
- What is the language mix?
We require a minimum of 200 languages to be available for translation, but there are no mandatory languages in that minimum.
- Would you share with us who the current incumbent(s) is/are?
There is no current incumbent as there is no previous contract for this.
Are out of state vendors able to participate as well? Yes
Can we bid for written document translation only? If you look on Bid Proposal Form B, you will see a line that asks for your cost for written document translation (per word translated)
What languages has ESCNJ found to be the most difficult to fulfill? This is our first bid for Translations Services and we are bidding for our 1300+ members so we do not have the answer to this question.
