Interpretation Services - Framework Agreement

The municipalities of Hå, Time, Klepp, Gjesdal, Strand and Hjelmeland would like to enter into a framework agreement with up to two tenderers for the provision of interpretation services within all of their service areas. Most of the assignments will, however, be within health, education, the child welfare service, the refugee service and the Norwegian Labour and Welfare (NAV). The aim of the procurement is to communicate qualified interpreters so that the company can provide its statutory services also to the part of the population that does not master adequate Norwegian. The interpretation shall be carried out to/from Norwegian and the foreign language The municipalities ́need for interpretation services is dynamic and is controlled, among other things, by how many refugees the municipalities accept at all times. In addition, the other immigration to municipalities within each language is not constant, but tends to come in waves. This can vary which languages are requested at any given time.
