Brief

• Phase I - To provide localisation services for a 16-language training and learning project, to include cultural checks and terminology management

• Phase II – To deliver effective voice-over material for all 16 languages

Solution

• Complete end-to-end workflow was established by the APT project team prior to the project kick-off, which included numerous live online meetings with all members of the translation team

• All the translation work was carried out by mother-tongue translators with the appropriate backgrounds, all living in the target countries and experienced in translation of this type of subject matter

• Secondary editing was provided by independent mother-tongue linguists

• All completed work was checked by the client’s in-country review teams using an efficient on-line workflow facility, enabling any changes to be incorporated quickly and accurately into both the translated content and each translation memory

• Approved translated scripts were received within the original planned deadlines, allowing the APT project team to successfully schedule all the voice-over work, ensuring terminology was presented accurately to each local market following pronunciation guidelines

Result

• Simultaneous rollout of material for each market, ensuring a common strategy across all areas of the organisation

• The successful implementation increased the team members’ understanding of the company’s model, products and objectives, thus improving the organisation’s market position

Next Phase

• Continual translation work for new editions of the project, including an additional 10 languages over an 18-month period
