Interpretation & Translation Tender Writing

 To succeed, providers must submit detailed, compliant, and persuasive bids that demonstrate linguistic capability, service reliability, and value for money.

At BWS, we help interpretation and translation providers win more contracts by producing high-quality tender submissions tailored to the demands of this specialist sector. Whether you’re bidding for face-to-face interpretation, telephone or video services, or document translation frameworks, our expertise ensures your bid is competitive and compelling.

• Proving linguistic & subject-matter expertise: Buyers require assurance that interpreters and translators are not only fluent but also trained in specialist fields such as law, healthcare, or technical industries. Demonstrating this at scale can be challenging.
• Compliance with safeguarding & confidentiality standards: Public sector contracts often require strict adherence to safeguarding protocols, security clearances, and GDPR/data protection standards. Failure to evidence compliance can result in disqualification.
• Demonstrating capacity & scalability: Frameworks often demand large pools of qualified linguists, 24/7 availability, and the ability to cover multiple languages on demand – areas where clear resource planning must be shown.
• Technology & accessibility requirements: Many buyers now expect bidders to evidence the use of secure booking platforms, remote interpretation technology, and accessible service models. Meeting these expectations within tight word counts can be difficult.
