I got a job offer where I need to provide some information about my services and my rates and the one point I don’t get is this one. I thought it maybe means if I offer the service, meaning Yes or No, but that makes no sense since I need to provide a rate with my answer as well and the LQA rate is a different bullet point.

Language Quality Assessment Oct 25, 2023

Language Quality Assessment (LQA), also called Language Quality Assurance, is the process of reviewing translated content to ensure it is fit for its intended purpose, error-free, consistent across translated content, and on brand. The scope of a quality assessment can vary.
So they probably mean to ask if you provide Language Quality Assessment as a service.

Thank you for the explanation Renée, but I was familiar with the term LQA, I know what that is. The problem I am having is that I dont understand why they would ask me a yes or no question there.

I will try to describe my problem better.
There is an Excel file with a table.
The table has 3 columns; the first one is filled out by them and they put various jobs in that column: MTPE, LQA, LQA Service (Y/N) etc.

The next column is titled "rate" so I obviously need to put down my rates for the different jobs there.
And the third column is for the currency so EUR, USD, etc.

But I don't get why I should insert a rate for a down a Yes or No question (in that case the point "LQA Service (Yes/No)", so I thought it might mean something different than what I thought. ▲ Collapse

They are the ones who created the file to be filled out, so they should know it best.
