Multilingual Translation & Language Accommodations

The contract seeks qualified vendors to translate exam content, instructions, and score reports into multiple languages with strict attention to linguistic accuracy and cultural relevance, ensuring that non-English speakers receive equitable access to testing materials. The work must maintain the integrity of the original content while adapting terminology and phrasing to align with regional language norms and cultural contexts, avoiding literal translations that could mislead or confuse test-takers. All deliverables require certification of linguistic validity and adherence to best practices in translation for high-stakes assessments. This is a subcontract opportunity under the NAICS code 541930, published by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation with a response deadline of August 14, 2026. The posting is available through the Texas SmartBuy portal, and while no specific city or state is listed for performance, the work is intended to support Texas’s statewide testing programs. Vendors must demonstrate experience in professional translation services for educational or licensing exams and be prepared to meet rigorous quality standards without reliance on automated tools that compromise nuance or context. No set-aside provisions are specified, making this opportunity open to all eligible subcontractors capable of fulfilling the linguistic requirements.
