The core scope of work for this tender involves translation services for documents, primarily from Castilian to Euskera and, to a lesser extent, from Euskera to Castilian. This includes the translation of new texts and the adaptation of existing ones.

The work is divided into two distinct lots:

• Lot 1: Focuses on lengthy administrative texts, such as reports, non-financial activity reports, strategic plans, transport plans, and agreements.
• Lot 2: Covers communication materials (press releases, web articles, social media), Mancoeduca content (didactic units, messages for educational centers and teachers), sensitization materials (composting bulletins, ecoblogs), and various management texts (ordinances, reports).

Simultaneous translation is explicitly excluded from this contract. The duration of the contract is one year for both lots, with the possibility of up to four annual extensions.

Core deliverables mentioned include a final report and partial reports. The awarded company will be provided with texts in Word format, and the client (SCPSA) will monitor the quantity and quality of the services rendered.
