WE FOCUS
ON QUALITY

Quality = professional translators +
proper IT solution

• Glosary management software
• Terminology extraction tools
• Translation quality models
• Statistical machine translation
My journey for the proper IT solution

Temporary mobile licenses

• Difficult to make sure
that all translators work
with the most updated
memories and glossaries
• Inconsistent terminology

Extract Terms
One translators develops
the glossary
The proofreader reviews
and approves the glossary

Parallel Work
All translators translate and
the proofreader proofreads
in parallel
The same translation
memory and glossary used
by the whole team

• The Project Manager
had to trust blindly the
freelancers
• Unpleasant “surprises”

Real Time Monitoring
The project manager
monitors in real time the
translators’ pace and
Takes corrective actions in
due time, if needed

Linguistic QA
Translators see the changes
made and have to approve
them
Facilitates our trainings
Easy “cold reviews”

LiveDocs
The aligned corpora is
stored as LiveDocs
Only approved translation
units go into the memory

Happier team 
PM has more control over
the whole process
Translators like
concordance,
communication and LQA
Proofreader – the happiest:
no more repeated mistakes

THANK YOU!
