Our quality standards

To us, quality is more than just a buzzword.

Certified processes, experienced language experts and innovative technologies.

Our quality standards are not just an abstract set of rules, they are an integral part of our day-to-day work. They determine how we plan and implement projects – and ensure our translations are of a consistently high standard. We adhere to globally recognised standards, employ only experienced language experts and work closely together with you.

Our quality standards

Our quality standards are based on trust, reliability and long-term cooperation. These principles underpin all our processes and are reflected in specific measures:

Permanent contact persons in project management

You will work with dedicated project managers and clearly defined deputies, who will take responsibility for your project.

The mother tongue principle

All translations are carried out exclusively by qualified native speakers of the relevant target language.

Customer focus as a quality benchmark

For us, quality means not only meeting your requirements, but actually exceeding them.

Multi-stage quality controls

Every project undergoes defined review steps as well as in-house project approval by the project management team.

Certified language experts

Our translators are carefully selected for every order and are continuously assessed.

Tailored solutions that deliver added value

We develop bespoke processes and are always prepared to go the extra mile for your project.

Clear service and response times

Reliable response times within two hours and clearly defined service promises ensure processes can be planned effectively.

Close cooperation

Regular check-ins and follow-ups ensure transparent and coordinated communication.

Continuous quality assurance and feedback

We actively use feedback from projects and complaints to improve our processes and results.

Our key principles for outstanding translation management

As a specialist translation service provider, we are deeply committed to our work and consistently focus our efforts on exceeding our clients’ expectations.

To do this, we have defined three clear principles that guarantee high quality at all times:

1. Certified processes

Our certified processes comply with the globally recognised standards for translation services. From project preparation through to the quality controls, we ensure all requirements are systematically implemented and thoroughly checked by our project management team.

2. In-depth human expertise

We only work with qualified translators, language, culture and translation specialists as well as linguists and terminologists – in short: people with a genuine passion for language. We think proactively, tackle complex tasks head on and work together with you to develop solutions that really match your needs.

3. Translations using innovative technologies

We combine human language proficiency with modern technologies and intelligent workflows to make translation processes more efficient, scalable and cost-effective. Drawing on our experience, a strong industry network and close collaboration with our clients, we systematically optimise individual process steps.

Our certifications

Our translation processes are based on certified standards and a well-established quality management system. These include:

ISO 17100 for human translation
ISO 18587 for MTPE (post-editing of machine translation output)
ISO 9001 for our quality management system
