The most value-adding feature is a localized product

Do you want to release your materials in other languages? Then you should treat this as a normal product requirement. This sounds like an open door, but in many cases the translators are confronted with a sub-optimal translation environment at the end of the cycle. As a consequence translations costs and time-to-market increases and the quality of the final product decreases. Sometimes, the effort to implement a new language may even so big (e.g. the bidirectional languages Hebrew and Arabic require a well-internationalized product) that is decided not to do it at all!

We help to get your materials localized

The focus area of Boxma IT is localization of materials (such as software and manuals). We analyze your processes, identify the pain points and provide solutions to reduce costs and time-to-market, and improve quality of translations.

We develop solutions

Every situation is unique. In many cases, the most effective way to optimize existing workflows is to develop a customization of a third party tool, in other cases it might be necessary do develop a specific tool from scratch. No problem for us! The following (not complete) overview gives you some indication of past projects. More details here.

1.Writing customizations for SDL Passolo: add-ins, macros and automation.
2.Writing customizations for SDL TagEditor: add-ins and automation.
3.Development of tools and utilities.
4.Advising a customer in the selection process for a Linguistic Service Provider.
5.Initiated and changed software localization process at a global company. The case study describes how the localization process of a large medical company was restructured and what the results were. Two of the key success factors were (1) to involve all stakeholders and (2) the introduction of a standard tool for software localization (SDL Passolo); the translators were able to use the same tool and process, independent in which development environment a product was created.
