Technical Translation Services

The Commercial Translation Centre (CTC) has been providing quality technical translation services at budget prices, since 1988. Technical translation covers a wide range of industries from engineering and pharmaceutical translation to information technology and finance translation. With technical documentation, translation accuracy is of vital importance. A single letter typographical error, may lead to catastrophic results. CTC has a successful 20-year track record in technical translation services, where accuracy is paramount.
The correct and consistent application of specialised industry terminology across large volumes of information is the corner stone of quality assured technical translation services. Further, product/service instructions, associated help files and GUI interfaces, sales and marketing collateral needs to tightly integrated, quality maintained and applied across different media in order to achieve a quality global brand.
Technical translation projects require the building and updating client industry glossaries, consistently applying them throughout the product documentation and recycling previously used documentation and utilising translation memories. Technical translation projects lend themselves extremely well to the application of Computer Assisted Translation (CAT) Technologies, resulting in quicker turnover times for product updates, higher quality, and with savings of up to 40% on standard translation rates.
The essential ingredient in driving successful technical translation projects is the CTC expertise in developing in-country teams of experienced native speaking technical translators, subject terminologists, senior editors and proofreaders. The vital role of project management is always handled by local project managers who have extensive experience in dealing with the technical and linguistic challenges of large complex projects with tight deadlines.
