subject: Translation Management Nurturing Global Enterprises [print this page] Languages are the medium of communication and translation is the process of communicating the meaning of a source language text to a target language text. Translation came into existence after written literature came into use and human translators with their spill-over of source language idiom and usage play a major role in the way most of the languages have been shaped. With industrial revolution taking the center stage in the 18th century, demands for business documentations also increased. Today as the business world moves towards a more globalized format there is a further increase in the need for a faster and efficient translation process.
Though there are dedicated schools and professional associations of human translators, the need for the hour is a fast and automated translation system. Further, in a globalized business environment with customers, business partners, vendors and workforce spread across various regions of the world, communicating in local languages becomes a major issue that needs to be tackled. The global enterprises thus need to be well equipped with systems that would help them in conveying the organizational goals and objectives as well as the operational strategies in a error free format. Technological innovations has helped the enterprises with the development of translation management systems that facilitates an end-to-end translation and localizing of information.

Besides through automated translation, this technology streamlines the translation process, centralizes linguistic assets, accelerating translation and enables collaboration across the entire translation supply chain.
However, understanding what is automated translation process will help enterprises in realizing the benefits from the same. Automated translation is a computer based translation process. As a function of the translation management technology, the automated translation process facilitates easy availability and accessibility of the localized content to the global customers. Further the presence of a centralized translation memory helps to provide on-demand translation support for knowledge base content, cross-language chat and multilingual email. This also ensures improved collaboration and integration between translators and other stakeholders.
The translation management system uses a proven database, work flow and technologies to integrate people, content systems and language assets from the automated translation process across the widely networked organization. Such translation management solution facilitates enterprises to effectively manage multiple vendors, and easily track project status and quotes. Further, this helps employee to understand non-native language communications and paves way for an improved employee collaboration.
