Quality Control

ASAP Translation quality control process consists of three main phases:

During the preparation stage, ASAP's project manager will ensure that client needs have been

properly understood and assign the appropriate resources, taking into account customer requirements,

document type, subject matter and audience. In some cases, documents for translation are

updated versions of previous documents, or part of a set of documents where ensuring

consistency is of major importance. Accordingly, the project manager will also identify any

existing previously translated materials which could be used, thereby saving the client both

time and money.

In the next stage the translator creates the translation in the target language. We understand that

this stage must include providing proper guidance to the translator if the client's specific needs are

to be met. Our strong focus on job preparation and ongoing support during the translation stage

is crucial to achieving the desired results. For assured accuracy, the translator is also requested to

highlight any ambiguity, inconsistency or apparent errors in the document being translated.

During the revision stage we appoint a carefully selected reviser to check the translation for

accuracy and appropriate style. Importantly, the translation is reviewed against the original document,

rather than being read in isolation, to avoid the risk of the translation being plausible but inaccurate.

Other activities during the revision stage include ensuring that all late changes and additions

to the original document have been incorporated into the translation, that issues which may have

arisen are resolved and that the format corresponds to the output format requested by the client.
