Effective management is key to every project’s success, whether you’re looking to conduct authentic market research, ensure employee engagement, craft quality marketing content or communicate with medical patients.
Where projects have a multi-national focus, the value of talented and experienced Project Managers is exponential. We see this every day as our award-nominated Project Management team harness their expertise and efficiency to ensure our clients’ projects are seamlessly delivered.
In this blog we explain why talented human Project Managers are critical to providing you with best-in-class translations and how to identify when your projects are in good hands.
An experienced Project Manager will provide peace of mind using their experience and specialist knowledge to ensure each translation project runs smoothly from start to finish.
This includes creating bespoke quotes, choosing the most appropriate linguists, handling queries from the project team and using their expert judgement to identify where clarification from the end-client is needed. The Project Manager will also oversee all workstreams to ensure deadlines are met.
We liken great Project Managers to swans, paddling fast under the surface to ensure that the project glides to a successful conclusion.
An outstanding Project Manager amalgamates each client’s needs, expectations and concerns to provide top-quality translations.
Their work includes fostering internal communication, being aware of and upholding industry standards and utilising their sector experience to overcome common challenges. Their exceptional focus on detail, coupled with rigorous quality assurance and control measures, ensures a swift and efficient translation process.
In the translation sector it is best to seek out agencies which use human translators who are held to very high standards, including ISO certification for their translation and revision services. This is an internationally recognised standard which covers all aspects of the translation process that directly affect the quality and delivery of services, including processes, translator qualifications and proofreading by a second, equally-qualified linguist.
Including the human touch in your project management processes will enable your business to create a customer-centric approach that focuses on not only delivering your services, but also exceeding your customers’ expectations. This in turn can lead to increased client loyalty, improved brand reputation and sustainable long-term business success.
