German Translations

When a client submits a translation request, a dedicated project manager confirms receipt within 15 minutes.

Before we respond to the translation request with a quote, we examine the files in detail to ensure we can meet all specifications regarding the language combination, the subject matter and the deadline.

Once we’ve finished examining all the details, we send out a customised quote including our recommended solution, a suggested deadline, and an estimated budget. Before we proceed with the translation process, we make sure the client has confirmed our quote.

The project manager is responsible for identifying and assigning the resources. He or she chooses the specialised translators to be assigned to the project based on the type of text, identifies and recommends the most suitable glossaries, and suggests CAT tools to ensure better quality control.

Our workflow is then taken over by the translator. After having received all the details regarding the translation project, he or she researches and carries out an in-depth study of the specific terminology required, checks to see if there are any client-specific terminological requests, and makes up a new glossary of terms where necessary. The main goal is to ensure the use of consistent terminology and phrasing.

The next step is to proofread the translated document. Our Reviewing Department assesses the translation accuracy and makes sure all terminological specifications have been met and that the entire project is in line with the client’s original request.

In the end, we make sure the layout of the translated text is similar to that of the original document.

Once the project has been completed, we deliver the files by email, ordinary mail or fast courier service. We also issue the invoice under the agreed terms.
