Project Team as the Cornerstone of Quality

Our translation team mainly comprises native speakers of the target language who take on the following roles:

  • Subject-matter experts (SME): Possessing life sciences background with cumulative experience and knowledge in clinical trial translation, our SMEs support terminology translation and maintenance as well as answer queries from translators.
  • Qualified translators: Our translators undergo assessment based on our Translation Quality Report (TQR), and we try our best to assign translators to the same product line for the same client.
  • Experienced editors: With years of experience in clinical trial translation, our editors are effective at using our cloud-based Computer-assisted Translation tool to review and make edits in real time to provide feedback to translators in the shortest time possible.
  • Rigorous proofreaders: Equipped with background knowledge of related clinical trial, they simulate end users by reviewing the translation with a fresh eye and without referencing source content.
  • Quality Assurance reviewer: Our QA team will sample 10% to 20% of translations to independently verify quality and identify potential quality issues.
  • In-country reviewers or third-party reviewers: Often requested by clients to serve as a further guarantee of translation quality.
  • In-country language leader: Work closely with our translator recruitment and project manager to build tailored and dedicated translator teams for each client.
  • Multilingual Desktop Publishing team: Ensure that translated documents are compliant and ready to be published in the right format.
