Timeline
    Description

    Sources Sought GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (GSA) is seeking information on a Multilingual Glossary Tool (MGT) for the purpose of improving communication with the Limited English Proficiency (LEP) population. The tool will promote consistent translation of government content and facilitate collaboration between government translators. It will serve as a shared resource for individual agencies across the federal government, reducing the burden of translating multilingual terms in various topic domains. GSA is requesting information from interested companies regarding their product's capabilities, features, functionality, licensing options, costs, and security measures. The goal is to start with a small pilot project involving approximately 10 users maintaining English and Spanish terms in the glossary for a single topic area, with the potential for expansion to include additional languages and topic areas if successful.
