Language Translation and Interpretation Services

The Marin County Office of Education (MCOE) seeks Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from qualified firms, persons, corporations, associations, or professional organizations to provide language translation and interpretation services on an as-needed basis. The selected respondents will deliver services offsite through telephonic, video, web-based, document, and in-person platforms. Translators and interpreters must comply with federal and state legal requirements regarding language access, confidentiality, and student privacy while supporting functions like Special Education documents and Individualized Education Program meetings. Eligibility is limited to USA-based onshore organizations. Submissions require one digital PDF copy sent via email to the designated MCOE contact with specific subject line and filename conventions. Questions must be submitted by email by October 15, 2026, at 12:00 p.m., and final SOQs are due by November 6, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. MCOE will evaluate proposals using a 100-point scale covering criteria such as completeness, qualifications, capacity, reference checks, and fee proposals. The agency anticipates awarding contracts to up to three respondents based on the highest scores.
