Understanding documents in other languages, or communicating your own message to other language speakers

Translation process

Do you need to comprehend documents and correspondence in full in the language of your customers, suppliers and colleagues? Do you need to communicate your own messages with absolute clarity to speakers and readers of other languages?

If the answer is yes you’ll also want to make sure the translation process is as smooth as possible on your terms.

Whether your translation needs are to understand a client contract, communicate a powerful sales message or outsource a multi-lingual localisation project, you will want to ensure that you have control over timeliness, costs and quality of output.

At Robertson Languages International we understand translation and we understand its importance to your business. That is why we have developed a unique project management system to support the successful completion of any project you trust to us. Each project is unique and your assigned project manager will discuss your specific needs and put together with you an appropriate solution. The process puts you at the heart of the project and you will have access at all times to our online clients services.

Why choose Robertson Languages International?

Project Managers – All RLI project managers are in-house graduate linguists who have been specially trained for a minimum of 6 months to plan projects efficiently and to meet agreed value, quality and timescale criteria. In addition to reinforce the trust you place in us we are bound to preserve your confidentiality as a matter of policy and we will sign a confidentiality agreement if you wish.

Our International clients often require us to liaise with their country representatives who authorise the various language versions of a document. Your project manager will create efficient methods of cooperating with your busy teams wherever they are located.

Investment - We help you to define the value you place on a project and right at the start we agree the level of investment you wish to make to give you the outcome you require. In addition for our regular clients we offer additional benefits to reward the loyalty and trust you place in us with your translation work.

Translation Quality - This is carried out by one of our network of in-house or external professional, qualified translators. They all translate into their native languages and many reside in their own country. Our translators specialise in translating certain subjects or types of material. We would not, for example, use a specialist in technical manuals for machinery to translate marketing material for a pharmaceutical product.

Attention to the detail of style, nuance and intent, as well a grammar, are vital for professional business documentation and that is why when proofreading, we make sure to check the source and target documents to ensure absolute accuracy.

There are specific requirements for many legal documents that need certification or notarisation and we can provide translators who specialise in authorised translations for the legal profession.

Localisation

Our specialist translators can adapt documents or website content to suit the language, currency symbols, metric/imperial measurements, equivalents of British or American abbreviations or acronyms and culture of another country. We also provide full localisation and technical testing of websites.

We can also create a glossary specific to your company's documentation, correspondence and communication processes which are specific to your industry, sector or company. A tailored glossary helps to keep all your translations consistent.

Rapid translations

If you need short, urgent translations, try our rapid translation service. A low cost, fast way of finding out what your foreign language document means.
