NECC Orientation Manual - EN to SP

The Massachusetts Department of Correction is soliciting translation services to convert the Northeastern Correctional Center (NECC) orientation manual from English to Spanish, with proposals due July 29, 2026.

NECC is a minimum-security correctional facility located in West Concord, Massachusetts. The orientation manual is a comprehensive 2MB document dated June 2026 that covers facility operations, inmate rules and regulations, programs, and services. The translation scope includes facility information and movement procedures; property, laundry, visiting, mail, and room-occupancy policies; medical services and sick-call processes; disciplinary and grievance procedures; prohibited contraband categories; educational and vocational programming (including the Correctional Recovery Academy for substance-use treatment, criminal-thinking and violence-reduction programs, adult basic education, high school equivalency preparation, and a nine-month Culinary Arts program); re-entry services; work-release and institutional employment opportunities; and financial management guidance.

No contract value, budget range, or term is specified in the source. No evaluation criteria, incumbent contractor, pre-bid meeting, or site visit is identified. No set-aside or preference program is noted. The government file attachment (2026 NECC orientation manual - EN to SP.pdf) is available for review.
