This is where we take your original document (also known as the source document) and we translate it, segment by segment, into the deliverable document (also known as the target document).

To do this, we will use bilingual columns and the latest Computer-Aided Translation software, which takes into account document formatting and client terminology glossaries.

This step is of paramount importance to the translation process flow and we will never offer translation services without it. 25 years of cumulative experience has taught us that a “fresh pair of eyes” is essential to ensuring the final quality of a document, picking up any instances of missing text, numeric discrepancies, terminological inconsistencies and much more. 

Quality management is a step that follows on from the translation+proofreading process. Quality Management ensures that client-preferred terminology has been used and the final formatting and layout of a document meets requirements

This is a spot-check performed by a final pair of eyes to ensure that everything is in order for delivery.

Same language editing is used when we are only dealing with one language in a document or set of documents, written by either a non-native speaker of that language or a person who does not feel entirely confident in their writing abilities in that language. A professional editor will read through the document and make stylistic edits, reword syntax and ensure terminological consistency to create a natural and native-level output in that language. This may be used by academics, for example. 

With over 25 years experience in the field, we have expertise in all of the following document types:

• Clinical trials
• Protocols
• Summaries of product characteristics
• Standard operating procedures
• Pharmaceuticals
• Clinical trial applications
• Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board regulatory correspondence
• Regulatory procedures
• Clinical trial agreements 

Our team includes legal experts who can guarantee accuracy in your legal translations:

• Clinical trial agreements
• Contracts
• Immigration
• Privacy Policies
• Clinical trial legislation
• Standard contractual clauses

All of our translation projects include this as an essential step in our 2-step translation process, but if you need proofreading of a translation or document we have not produced ourselves, we can provide an editing and proofreading service of a bilingual document or same language document to improve its quality.
