Quality Assurance in Translation: Can You Trust Your Translation Provider?

Not all translation companies are equal, especially when it comes to the quality of translations that they provide. But how do you know which provider to use or that your chosen provider will produce a high quality translation?

How do translation companies ensure that a translation is accurate?
Good translation providers rely on secure systems of checks and balances that ensure that a translation is performed to the highest possible standard and that it corresponds to a project’s specifications. The international standards for translation services are set out in the ISO 17100 quality assurance certification. A translation company that holds an ISO 17100 certification must follow the guidelines established by the ISO.
