Globalization of documentation and software is complex and requires excellent technical, linguistic, process and technology skills. Our many years of experience in localization and translation-specific project management enable us to provide our clients with proven solutions to their globalization challenges. Project managers work closely and efficiently with the client to achieve the desired results.
When you start working with Translators International, a dedicated project manager will be assigned to your account, who will oversee all of your work from inception to completion. So you always have a single point of contact with whom to discuss last-minute changes or to get updates on the status of a project. Your project manager will get to know you, learn your business, and develop an effective, professional relationship, ensuring the continuity of communication and retention of knowledge from project to project. Our project managers' duties involve coordinating teams of translators, localizers and editing staff, as well as approving and monitoring resources and carrying out all the necessary procedural controls. Your project manager will control the process to ensure that your project is delivered on time and within budget.
Our project managers are key resources in our company and possess many attributes. Excellent communication, reporting and negotiation skills. An in-depth understanding of localization processes and technologies. Expertise in planning, budgeting, resource management, project tracking, risk management and QA. And of course full commitment to the client.
Our project managers are responsible for a wide range of critical steps throughout the project lifecycle. These steps include:
- Analysis
- Set-up
- Preparation
- Co-ordination
- Sign-off and Delivery
Our project managers control the progress of jobs by dividing all the work into the smallest possible processes. On the assumption that deviation is inevitable during processes, arrangements are made in advance to rectify these. Discovering and solving as many problems as possible during the upstream processes, cuts overall delivery time. This is an article of faith for our project managers. They expend a great deal of time tracking and identifying any problems before even sending instructions out to the translator. They also sometimes take advantage of different time zones assigning jobs to suitable translators around the world as a means of shortening the delivery period.
A project manager allows you to sit back and relax until your project is finished.
