The Translation Bureau is an agency of PWGSC charged with supporting the Government of Canada in its efforts to provide services for, and communicate with, Canadians in the official language of their choice. The requirement pertains to the National Defense Division.

The texts to translate, of a general or specialized nature, deal with federal programs and activities in the military field. The documents to be translated consist of, among other things, meeting or conference agendas and minutes, briefing notes, reports, memorandums, articles for Defence Department publications, PowerPoint presentations, training and instruction manuals, calls for tender, statements of work and documents for a specific target audience, such as civil servants and military personnel.
The total annual requirement for English-to-French translation is estimated at 2,500,000words or the equivalent in hours.
Services shall be provided for one (1) years as of the contract award date, and the contract will include an option allowing it to be extended for two (2) additional periods of one (1) year each under the same terms and conditions.
The total annual requirement for English-to-French translation is estimated at 2,500,000 words and 100hours for work billed by hour, i.e. a production capacity of up to 10,000words per working day.
During the three-month familiarization period, the expected production capacity is 5,000words per working day for the first month, 7,000words per working day for the second month and 9,000words per working day for the third month.
