Translation request = Swan's bite on the water
Hello GCON STUDIO TEAM This is it.
Have you ever seen swans gliding over a lake?
On the surface, they seem to be moving gracefully slowly, but under the surface, the two feet are alternately busy moving.
There seem to be many aspects of our frequent translation work similar to this swan situation.
When I think of “translation” work, I often think of “an elegant translator sitting in a nice library and working.”
However, in reality, many stakeholders must be busy throughout the entire process from request to completion until a single translation task is completed.
In this post, I'll take the time to simplify and easily explain the complex process of translation from request to completion.
First, let's take a look at the relationships between people involved in translation.
client
translation company
translators
firsts The characters are “clients” in need of translation.
second I would like to introduce the characters 'Translation Company'. It is responsible for receiving requests for various translations and managing and supervising the entire process until the translation is completed.
third The character is a “translator.” As everyone knows, I'm in charge of the actual translation work.
If you take a closer look, the characters' positions are very different.
Client's quick affairs
Clients would like it to be easy to request a translation. Above all, I want documents that need to be translated to be easily delivered and made as easy to use as possible when receiving them.
Furthermore, I think security, translation quality, and schedule compliance are basic. (Of course, if you entrust it to a proper translation company, these basics will of course be kept.)
Translator's quick story
Translators also don't like complicated things. I want to focus on translation, which is my area of expertise, and I want to get a fair return on time for my hard work.
On the other hand, I don't want to waste time and money to buy or learn a separate program that isn't directly related to the actual translation job.
Translation company's quick affairs
Finally, there is a translation company that is responsible for coordinating everything between the client and the translator. Translation companies must ensure that the entire process of translation is carried out smoothly from request to completion. Therefore, a translation company's top priority is to manage the entire translation process without mistakes. Good management of resources and schedules invested in translation will increase client satisfaction, and translator reliability will also increase. Therefore, translation companies that need to manage the entire translation process need a translation management system (TMS:Translation Management System).
If you use a translation management system,
First, clients can easily make requests and receive results.
Second, translators can focus on translation work above all else.
Third, translation companies can also prevent mistakes during administrative work.
Without a translation management system, personnel working for a translation company must manage it manually by phone or email.
It works in a similar way to how telephone operators used to connect lines by hand in the olden days.
On the other hand, translation companies that use translation management systems seem to have powerful tools (Tools) that can easily manage such complicated procedures.
