Insights into Our Quality Assurance & Workflow
Transparent answers to top concerns raised by enterprise procurement, legal counsel, and localization engineering teams.
How do you handle terminology discrepancies or conflicting term preferences?
We practice the "Client-Approved Glossary Precedence Principle". Before translation begins, our engineering team extracts high-frequency core terms to build a project Glossary. Once signed off by client SMEs, this termbase is locked into the CAT environment. For novel terms encountered during translation, senior reviewers propose up to two researched options citing regulatory standards or official corpora for client PM approval.
Why does Linguist mandate independent dual review (TEP) instead of single-pass translation?
Single-pass translation carries inevitable human blind spots, regardless of translator skill. ISO 17100 requires absolute independence: a second, equally qualified native linguist performs a full sentence-by-sentence bilingual comparison, scrutinizing subtle mistranslations, formatting fidelity, and style cadence. This dual-pair review is what guarantees zero-defect enterprise publishing.
How do you ensure uncompromised quality on urgent 24-hour turnaround projects?
Rush delivery never means skipping quality steps. We mobilize pre-vetted teams on our cloud TMS platform where live termbase and translation memory updates synchronize in real time. Multiple translators work on segmented batches while a dedicated Lead Reviewer harmonizes consistency across all segments, followed by automated QA checks and pre-flight inspection.
What is your revision warranty policy if edits are needed after delivery?
We provide lifetime free revision warranty on all delivered deliverables. If any mistranslation, terminology mismatch, or formatting discrepancy is identified, we revise the document within 4 to 24 hours at zero cost and update your private translation memory. If edits stem from source text modifications by your team, we charge only minimal prorated rates for the delta.
Do you have genuine subject matter experts for niche fields like oncology or semiconductor lithography?
Yes. Over 60% of our 5,000+ native linguists hold formal academic degrees in STEM, pharmacology, law, or finance alongside translation credentials. Projects are strictly assigned using 3-tier domain matching, ensuring clinical trials are handled by medical doctors/biochemists and automotive software by embedded software engineers.
Can you provide official certified translation seals and translator affidavits?
Yes. We provide legally valid bilingual certified translation seals officially registered with the Public Security Bureau and Market Regulation Administration. Every certified delivery includes a formal Translator Statement of Accuracy, certified company registration copy, and official corporate stamps recognized by courts, immigration authorities, FDA, and NMPA.
