In addition to its head office activities, BDC currently operates over 100 business centers across Canada. Due to its geographical reach and mandate as a Crown Corporation, BDC must ensure that its communications are available to all its employees and clients (whether current or potential) in both official languages. In such context, BDC is seeking a supplier that will provide English to French and French to English translation, revision and proofreading services for internal and external confidential documents. Ensuring the efficiency of this service for its various business units, the accuracy of translations and the highest professional translation standards is key to maintaining BDC’s reputation, internally as well as externally.
The selected bidder shall use BDC’s Translation Management System to get information of a project, instructions, and notifications, and shall also use BDC’s methodology to exchange files (via BDC’s SharePoint).
Given the confidential nature of these translation services security requirements are important. The Bidders system and process will be reviewed by BDC’s security team to assess if the security of their systems allows storage of BDC documents in a manner determined to be safe based on BDC’s standards. A Bidder who is unable to comply with BDC’s security standards will be rejected.
