MCI Norfolk Orientation Manual - EN to SP

The Massachusetts Department of Correction is requesting translation of the MCI Norfolk Orientation Manual from English to Spanish, with proposals due September 1, 2026.

The deliverable is a Spanish-language translation of a comprehensive orientation manual for MCI Norfolk, a medium-security correctional facility in Norfolk, Massachusetts. The source document (approximately 2MB) covers institutional rules, regulations, procedures, and services for incarcerated individuals, including mandatory orientation program schedules, movement and count procedures, disciplinary policies, classification reviews, visiting hours and mail handling, telephone access, work assignments, canteen operations, fund management, special population accommodations (Gender Nonconforming individuals and Clinical Stabilization Unit residents), mental health and medical parole services, and grievance procedures with specified timelines. The manual incorporates references to Massachusetts Department of Correction regulations (103 CMR standards) and facility-specific operational details including visiting room procedures, canteen spending limits, and communication protocols. The translator must ensure accuracy in conveying security protocols, contraband prevention requirements, and compliance procedures while maintaining the facility's emphasis on rehabilitation and reintegration.

No contract value, term length, evaluation criteria, or additional procurement milestones are specified in the posted notice.
