Translation/interpretation process management is conducted based on client needs. Translation/interpretation is not merely linguistic conversion, but a process of taking into account various sociocultural factors, including regional culture, social history, cultural background, customs and habits, religious beliefs, and politics, which directly influence forms of language expression in specific contexts. Following the trend of Internet plus translation technology, Orientaltrans, which upholds the philosophy that “translation/interpretation quality is the lifeblood of a business”, pursues quality with the craftsmanship spirit, standardizes the implementation of translation/interpretation projects through process management, reduces overlapping and duplication in the process of customer interaction, and effectively increases the project operation efficiency, ensuring smooth project implementation.
Project Analysis
After receiving a translation request from a client, the project manager accordingly determines the translation, proofreading, formatting and layout stages, and makes and implements a reasonable plan for task assignments. Prior to the implementation of a key project, the corresponding department head will establish a project working group, clearly define roles and responsibilities of its members, and make overall arrangements to ensure the smooth and orderly progress of the project.
Text Analysis
In terms of text translation, the content of a text and industry background will be analyzed based on application scenarios, target readers and more. We integrate the termbase and the translation memory, understand personalized requirements of clients, and maintain the consistent terminology, tone and style in translation.
Text Translation
Specific texts are assigned to appropriate translators. A three-pronged approach with real-time monitoring, spot checks, and regular feedback is adopted in the translation process, enabling the tracking of the actual project progress and the timely identification and resolution of issues, and making it convenient for clients to keep track of the translation work at any time.
Text Proofreading
A proofreader will review the translation upon its completion to assure the quality. The proofreader will polish and refine the finished translation as required to guarantee its fluency, authenticity and accuracy.
Post-translation Formatting and Layout
Post-translation formatting and layout are required by clients. This involves standard formatting and layout for professional documents, such as engineering drawings, emails, code programs, academic papers and books.
Delivery
Upon project completion, it is essential to promptly collect client feedback, maintain communication with clients in a timely manner and sort out the latest termbase and translation memory.
