Suggestions please...

Thank you for reading my post and for your explanation. With these new features, I wonder what will happen to the BB, the LWAs and the WWAs…
Nothing will happen to them. As far as I know, the feedback service will remain the same.

As expressisverbis has already stated in one of her previous posts, LSP stands for Language Service Provider.

How about “contractor”? It's not that longer than the current label.
I hired this contractor
I hired this vendor

In the age of self-select pronouns, maybe we should avoid labels altogether. How about “them”?
Contractor says builder to me.
I still object as much to “hired” though…

Well, then my vote goes to "linguist" as well.

translator.

It wasn't forgotten. We need a word that includes both translators and interpreters...

A fair point. ProZ isn't really about interpreters.

Unless we use both words: translator and/or interpreter.

I’ve just noticed that clicking on the button in question it says “You are about to report that your business has assigned work to xxxxxx at least once in the past”. Maybe the button could just say “Work assigned”?

We could simply broaden the meaning of "translator" to include the meaning of "interpreter". Many people already say "let's get a translator" when they mean "let's get an interpreter".
