Most companies do not manage nor deploy their corporate technical, administrative and marketing terminology to their employees, vendors or partners. This can result in an inconsistent external message.

Explore how you can cost effectively standardize your terminology by unlocking the value of your previously translated multilingual assets in order to deliver a consistent message in all languages, throughout all your offices with a real-time centralized terminology management solution.

Some Statistics:

  • Terminology raises productivity by an estimated 10% to 33% during the authoring phase, and 5% to 9% during the translation phase.
  • Non-standardized terminology incurs significant direct and indirect costs. For example, sources suggest that each ambiguous term search can take up to 30 minutes to complete.
