Technical capabilities
Built into your engineering workflow, not bolted on
We preserve technical integrity and remove rework, so your engineers review content, not formatting.
-
Work in your source files
We work directly in your source environments, preserving formatting, engineering call-outs, and structured content, so nothing has to be rebuilt after translation.

- XML and DITA
- Adobe InDesign
- Word and Excel
- HMI string files
- Video and e-learning

Centralized technical glossaries
We build and maintain your corporate technical dictionary, so a term is translated the same way in every market and every manual.

Global workforce training
We localize e-learning modules, instructional videos, and onboarding materials, so training is the same at every production site and new staff are productive sooner.
Quality process
Every technical document passes four quality checks
Translate, edit, and proof, followed by an in-country review against local industrial standards.
Translate
A subject-matter linguist with an engineering or technical background translates the document.
Edit
A second linguist checks every segment against the source and your glossary.
Proof
A final proof catches layout, numbering, and call-out errors in the finished file.
In-country review
A reviewer in the target market confirms it meets local industrial standards.

Meet one-on-one with a language services expert, at a time that suits you.
How do you ensure the accuracy of high-precision technical specifications?
We assign subject-matter linguists with engineering or technical writing backgrounds. Every document goes through translate, edit, and proof (TEP), followed by an in-country review to confirm it meets local industrial standards.
Can you localize the user interface of industrial machinery?
Yes. We localize HMI (human-machine interface) software for control panels, including alarms, status messages, and units, so equipment is clear and safe for local operators.
How does translation memory reduce our costs?
Manufacturing documentation is highly repetitive. Translation memory stores every approved segment, so repeated content costs less on each new manual or revision and stays word-for-word consistent.
Do you support global safety (HSE) rollouts?
Yes. We localize safety manuals, emergency procedures, training, and signage quickly, so every site stays compliant with corporate standards and local labor laws.
Which source file formats do you work in?
We work directly in AutoCAD drawings, XML and DITA content, Adobe InDesign layouts, Word and Excel, HMI string files, and video and e-learning files, and return them in the same format.
Can you translate training videos and e-learning?
Yes. We translate e-learning modules and add subtitles or voiceover to instructional and safety videos, so training is the same at every production site.
Do you provide interpreters for plant audits and training?
Yes. Consecutive and simultaneous interpreters support supplier audits, plant visits, technical training, and executive meetings, on site or remote.
