Summary: The Office of the President requests authorization for the Chief Procurement Officer to increase a contract with Language Line Solutions for Foreign Language Interpretation and Translation Services. This contract will allow for OUP to access high quality interpretation and translation services. OUP has found the services previously provided by Language Line Services to be excellent and effective in meeting the strategy of scaling enterprise-wide services and account management regardless of volume, while providing the infrastructure to increase volume as needed.
The contract was a Comparable Government Procurement pursuant Section 34-140 of the Procurement Code. Language Line Solutions was previously awarded a contract through a Request for Proposal process through OMNIA Partners, a national government purchasing cooperative in cooperation with Region 4 Education Service Center (“Region 4”). OMNIA Partners is a group purchasing organization which services public agencies, and its procurements are led by public procurement agencies.
