Project Preparation

The following information helps evaluate drawing complexity, engineering standards, and timelines.

Source Files

Provide O&M manuals, technical specs, CAD drawings, or HMI string tables (Word, PDF, InDesign, Excel, JSON).

Target Languages

Specify target export regions, languages, and applicable industry standards (ISO, GB/T, EN, OSHA).

Purpose & Audience

Clarify end-use (O&M guidance, overseas commissioning, quality compliance, procurement) and technician readers.

Terminology & References

Provide existing parts glossaries, legacy bilingual manuals, or reference materials.

Format & Timeline

Confirm 1:1 DTP layout requirements, bilingual side-by-side audit formats, and delivery deadlines.

💡 Note: Technical parameters, part numbers, and safety imperatives follow strict engineering codes; model numbers should be locked.

Industry Translation & Quality Workflow

Enforcing closed-loop workflows from terminology extraction and SME translation to layout alignment.

Scope & Terminology Extraction

Analyze document structures, drawing layers, and extract vertical domain terms into glossaries.

Domain Expert Translation

Match specialized translators with healthcare, IT, legal, or engineering backgrounds.

Dual Review & Numeric QA

Cross-verification of technical tolerances, safety alerts, and regulatory references.

Layout Inspection & Callout Sync

Preserving document hierarchy, callout references, and structural alignment per source conditions.

Handover & TM Archival

Deliver final files, QA audit logs, and archive confirmed termbases into customer TM.

Deliverables

The following deliverables are tailored per agreed project scope.

Deliverables

Final formatted target documents (Word / PDF / InDesign)
Bilingual side-by-side verification documents for engineering audit
Project industrial equipment glossary (TBX / Excel)
QA audit and DTP visual verification logs

Prerequisites & Scope Notes

CAD Drawing Complexity: Scanned drawings require upfront OCR and vector layer reconstruction evaluation
Industry Standards: Compliance with specific mandatory standards (CE Machinery Directive, GB) agreed early
Intellectual Property: NDA signed to safeguard proprietary industrial blueprints and algorithms
Technical Clarifications: Direct query log channels established for non-standard proprietary part names

What linguist profile do you use for ISO 13485 translation?

Industry-experienced translators and reviewers, client or project glossaries, compliance checklists, and SME review for critical sections when needed.

Are you familiar with regulatory and standard documentation?

We handle common international and local frameworks (e.g. FDA/MDR, IEC, ISO depending on sector)—IFUs, SOPs, contracts, manuals and more.

How do you maintain content over time?

Project TM and glossaries, diff-based updates, dedicated PMs and cadence aligned to your release or quarterly cycles.

How much does ISO 13485 translation cost?

Pricing depends on word/page count, language pair, subject matter, timeline and formatting. Send a sample or files—we respond within 24 hours with a detailed quote.

What factors affect translation pricing?

Key factors: language pair, content type (general/technical/legal), layout/DTP, certified or notarized delivery, glossary work, rush fees, and volume for ongoing programs.

How long does translation take?

Typical documents are planned at roughly 2,000–3,000 source words per day; website and software work is phased by module. We confirm milestones during scoping.
