All agencies charge premiums that clients are finding difficult to justify
- Clients currently contracted with interpreting agencies face immense pressure to reduce costs. Finding alternative solutions is becoming a necessity. The current model of agency interpreters and the costs is un-affordable and unsustainable.
- Many clients already manage their own budgets making decisions locally. Most are seeking a good quality service at a fair price. Many schools, law firms and other public service clients contract with interpreters directly avoiding expensive agency premiums. Direct contracting offers interpreters a better rate and saves clients money.
- Devolved budgets and decisions on how money is spent taken at a local level will mean more and more clients will be able to make sensible decisions about their interpreting needs.
