ASL Interpretation Services – Long Duration Events (Over 2 Hours)

The contract calls for team-based American Sign Language interpretation services for extended-duration events lasting more than two hours, such as full-day workshops and conferences, where sustained accuracy and interpreter well-being are critical. Interpretation will be delivered in shifts to prevent fatigue and maintain high-quality communication access, with coordination required to ensure seamless transitions between interpreters. Technical integration is a key component, meaning the interpreters must be equipped to work with audiovisual systems, remote platforms, and any event-specific technology to deliver clear and real-time interpretation in both in-person and hybrid settings. Services are required within Canada’s National Capital Region and fall under NAICS code 611610, which pertains to other educational support services. The contract is structured as a subcontract under the Government of Canada, administered by the Canada School of Public Service, and is open for bid through the CanadaBuys platform. Interested parties must submit their responses by May 28, 2026, and should be prepared to demonstrate experience with long-duration events, team-based interpreting protocols, and the ability to integrate with technical infrastructure commonly used in governmental and public sector events.
