This process is implemented through the following steps:Step 1: Project Kick-off The project manager goes over the client's requirements regarding document content, workload, turnaround time, formatting and layout, confirms the translation rates and obtains a formal purchase order from the client. Step 2: Project PreparationThe project manager appoints a project team, prepares a project kit/glossary and provides technical training for team members if necessary. The project manager also foresees potential problems and finds workable solutions to any delay that might occur. Step 3: TEP (Translation, Editing and Proofreading) Processes Translations are carried out by translators who are native speakers of the target languages and have relevant background experience. Query reports and regular meetings are used to efficiently solve problems and share information. Editors review 100% of the translations by comparing the target language against the source language. Accuracy, grammar, spelling and writing style are thoroughly checked. Additionally, proofreaders simulate the experience of the end user by checking the text. This ensures a native flow and provides a further opportunity for error correction. Step 4: Quality Assurance (QA)A separate QA process is executed to randomly check 10% of the files that have been translated and reviewed. Project instructions and our internal quality standards are essential as the means to assess translation quality. Step 5: Project Sign-off A sign-off meeting is held among the project team members and the QA manager in order to conduct a final review of the project and guarantee that all requirements have been satisfied. The finished files are submitted to the client using the designated method. Step 6: Project SummaryThe project manager and QA manager internally evaluate the project quality as well as the performance of the team members. The translation memory and glossary are maintained for the next release, and all the related files are backed up.Desktop Publishing (DTP)The LocaTran DTP Department provides full support for multilingual documentation.
