Quality control, the nuts and bolts of a good translation

In order to provide you with a flawless translation, I make a point of using QA resources and methods to give a text the final touch. That way, you don't need to worry about translation quality and are instead free to concentrate on your core business!

  • Technologies to ensure terminological and stylistic consistency in the translation process

  • Thorough self-editing process after each translation

  • Tools for automated QA checking to ensure the translated text meets client-specific requirements, e.g.:

    • - Adherence to preferred terminology
    - Avoidance of forbidden terms

  • QA tools for checking form and content, e.g.:

    • - Punctuation mistakes
    - Number errors
    - Missing / superfluous spaces
    - Incorrect use of special characters
    - Inconsistencies
    - Tagging errors
    - Omissions

    In addition to carrying out QA checks for each text I also take long-term quality assurance measures, for example by attending professional training events. Last but not least, you benefit from my insurance cover if something does not go according to plan in spite of all preventive measures (which has never happened so far):
