The Canada School of Public Service requires the services of Contractors who can provide excellent copy editing, comparative editing (including copy editing) and/or proofreading services, in both English and French, on an “as and when requested basis” for specific publications and its communications and learning products.
CSPS intends to establish Departmental Individual Standing Offers (DISOs) to support its Linguistic Services Unit in the Communications and Engagement Directorate, which is located in the National Capital Region. The DISOs will support the Unit in handling requests for copy editing, comparative editing (including copy editing) and/or proofreading services during peak periods, given the surge in requests for these services.
The School intends to award up to two (2) DISOs as a result of this solicitation. Each successful Offeror will be issued one (1) DISO, for which it has qualified, for the provision of copy editing, comparative editing (including copy editing) and/or proofreading services, in both English and French.
The proposed period of the DISO will be for a one (1) year period commencing from the date of issuance of the DISO. The DISO may be authorized for use beyond the initial period, for four (4) additional one (1) year periods.
For each established Standing Offer (SO), the services required will be in six (6) working streams as identified below:
Stream 1 – English Copy Editing
Stream 2 – English Comparative Editing (including Copy Editing)
Stream 3 – French Copy Editing
Stream 4 – French Comparative Editing (including Copy Editing)
