# Maintenance and user support for the Tõlkevärav translation gateway

Riigi Tugiteenuste Keskus is procuring a single-supplier framework for maintenance and user support of the Tõlkevärav software used by the Estonian Language Institute. The official TED API description also covers additional software development charged by the hour and partner/user consultations. The framework is expected to run for up to 48 months or until its maximum volume is reached. The estimated value over the period is €1,000,000 and the maximum possible total is €3,000,000 excluding VAT; the framework does not commit the buyer to ordering the described monthly or hourly services. TED states a deadline of 19 October 2026 at 12:00 Estonian time (UTC+03:00), equivalent to 09:00 UTC. The available notice information gives a different cutoff of 18 October at 22:00 UTC; this discrepancy is disclosed and the precisely stated TED deadline is used. The original TED PDF route returned HTTP 429; the retrieved API provides the full available procedure description, but detailed conditions and selection criteria remain in separate documents not opened.
