Description:
The Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities Agency (OOD) is requesting quotes for OOD Captioning Services. The goal is to ensure that communication with people with disabilities is equally effective as communication with people without disabilities. The Americans with Disability Act (ADA) requires that Title II entities, State and local governments, communicate effectively with people who have communication disabilities. OOD is seeking vendors to supply on-site and/or remote captioning services in all eighty-eight (88) Ohio counties. Respondents must provide an hourly rate for on-site services in at least one Ohio county. • The services are requested to be rendered in person or remotely during typical employee working hours. • The respondent must be able to provide services utilizing OOD-approved videoconference software. • The respondent shall identify a single point of contact and ensure all assigned captionists have the skill and knowledge to complete the work. • The respondent must maintain the standards of the Code of Ethics of the National Court Reporters Association (NCRA). • The respondent must have at least two years of business experience providing captioning services.

Budget Estimate (AI):

$1,000,000 – $5,000,000

The budget for this opportunity is not explicitly stated in the document. However, considering the services required, such as on-site and remote captioning, and the need for experienced captionists, the budget is likely to be substantial. The contract duration is 24 months, and the services will be provided in all 88 Ohio counties, which suggests a significant scope of work. A rough estimate for the budget could be in the range of $500,000 to $2 million per year, depending on the number of captionists, the frequency of services, and the hourly rates. This estimate is based on the assumption that the hourly rate for on-site services will be higher than for remote services and that the respondent will need to provide a team of experienced captionists to cover all 88 counties.
