Project Management:

Accreditation certificates may be a neccesary, but not sufficient reason, for eligibility with the CTC language teams. Further testing, project supervision, and years of experience is required before full membership is granted. CTC project managers have accumulated decades of expertise acting and are the core of the quality control for the entire translation/localisation project cycle. CTC does not outsource to call centres in order to possibly save on costs. CTC ensures that clients are provided dedicated locally based project mangers so that there is continuity and a trust based relationship built from each assignment. With its 20 years of project management CTC can count on at minimum of 30 experienced translators and 4 senior editors, in each in the top 20 commercial languages. The core language translation teams in each language have been forged through long term working relationships that have stood the test of time and the challenges of complex localisation projects.

If your brand and product specifications needs to be used in another country, it may need to go through the process of adaptation for localisation or globalisation.

Sourcing a good translator is only a small component of the overall process. It is not the translator's role to determine the appropriate marketing approach for the target country, particularly if your promotional material has not been prepared for the specific market in question. It is the quality and experience of the CTC project management that will drive your product through the various hurdles: liasing with in-country translators and editors, providing relevant cross-cultural feedback, assistance in re-authoring the source material is all part of the process that is neccessary to drive and maintain your world wide brand.
