Consultancy on translation process optimization

Cogen's process and desktop publishing team can help you optimize your translation processes, capitalize on your previously translated material and re-use more of the layout of your original document.

An optimization exercise is usually triggered by your translation project coordinator:

If it becomes apparent that you could reduce your document preparation costs and/or re-use more content from your translation memory if the authoring or layout or your documents were slightly adapted, the project coordinator will propose a budget outline for a consultancy project, complete with an ROI estimate.

If you agree, Cogen's process team will then analyze a sample of your documents and submit a detailed report, with optimization suggestions.

These suggestions will help you:

• Reduce or eliminate document preparation effort and cost
• Make the content of your documents fully extractable from their layout, for matching with your translation memory
• Increase the proportion of full matches with your translation memory, and consequently reduce your translation costs
• Reduce the publishing costs for your translated documents
