Localization
is a complex process, at
Soft Localize it looks easy due to our own fully automated workflow
system that helps us provide you with consistent, cost control and
on time delivery. Here's how we do it:
Project
management:
A Project Manager will be assigned to your project. The
project manager is your connection to Soft Localize, keeping you up
to date on a regular basis and resolving any problems and answering
any queries. The PM's responsibilities include:
-
Serve as the
information interface between all parties involved in the
project.
-
Coordinate the
work of all parties.
-
Plan and track
the progress of the project.
-
Implement the
required methodologies and procedures.
-
Collecting and
distributing status reports.
Project
analysis:
We do a comprehensive analysis of your source material (formats,
volumes, required processes, problems identification, etc.). Upon
this analysis we can:
-
Determine the
most efficient method to localize your product.
-
Reduce cost,
time and improve consistency.
Project
preparation:
Prepare the localization kits (source files, glossaries, translation
memories, style guides, detailed instructions for every one in the
project team, etc.
Translation
and adaptation:
This is core of our process; in
most projects our engineering services work hand-in-hand with our
translation resources to achieve your needs.
Our translation team creates a translated version that preserves the
intent and style of the source files making sure that culture
specifications and customs are adapted to the target language. Then
your product is re-engineered and adapted by the specialized
engineering team.
Project Quality
Assurance:
In order to ensure quality and bug free, we monitor your product
early, and often. In addition to our own procedures, we use
different and industry-standard QA tools and apply a series of QA
tests at each step of a project.
Our QA process focuses on:
-
Software QA
plans.
-
Test script
implementation.
-
Software and
help system engineering, compilation, and debugging.
-
Functional and
linguistic testing.
-
On-line
documentation generation and testing.
