Localization
LOCALIZATION
Achieving authenticity in local markets
Every company with global ambitions faces the constraint of local market realities. In order to ready new brands, products, software, games, content or services for local release, there's more to consider than language translation alone. Cultural relevance and regulatory compliance must be factored in too.
Cultural relevance depends on understanding the target market well enough to successfully adapt global content to local tastes. Fortunately we've over three decades of experience in this area - optimizing local UX to meet cultural sensitivities, time and time again. We've even developed sets of proprietary checklists for each major market - by industry, product medium, and content type - so that no nuance is ever missed.
Taking care of governance
On the regulatory compliance front, extensive experience in the worlds of life sciences, finance, legal and manufacturing mean we know exactly what is required. What's more our subject matter experts are always on the lookout for compliance risks in clients' products and documentation. Regulatory complications, which can be overlooked by other providers, can delay or derail a product launch, and even attract fines from local authorities. Not only do we handle all elements of the localization process for many clients, we can also help with product submission, patent applications, compliance validation and formatting checks, across most key verticals.
LOCALIZATION
Website localization
Website localization is a priority for many global businesses. But what may seem a simple aspiration rests on a complex set of requirements. These include project management, translation, quality assurance, online testing and real-time updates. At EC Innovations, we specialize in optimizing your original website content to deliver in any chosen market.
LOCALIZATION
Localization Testing
No organization that values its market reputation is prepared to release new products or services without comprehensive testing. That’s why Localization Testing is integral to the EC Innovations approach. Teams from the dedicated QA and testing department run a range of linguistic testing, i18n testing, GUI testing and other protocols on every client project. Every team features professional in-country linguists possessing deep subject matter expertise. Together they identify and eliminate all translation glitches and functionality issues before signing-off projects as ready for release.
CERTIFICATION
ISO certified
Many clients take the sensible precaution of requiring ISO certification from suppliers. At EC Innovations we're certified to ISO 9001, ISO 17100 and ISO 27001.
ISO 9001
ISO 9001 designates a company with an effective quality management system that meets the needs of customers and stakeholders in service delivery and improvement. We received this certification in 2008.
ISO 17100
ISO 17100 specifies requirements for all aspects of the translation process. This one came our way in 2015.
ISO 27001
ISO 27001 verifies the ability of an organization to mitigate risk and protect customer information by having the appropriate security measures in place, particularly in the cyberspace domain.
SECURITY
Confidentiality & Security
We never take the trust that our clients place in us lightly. Effective security depends on establishing and following watertight safety and confidentiality protocols. And that's just what we do here at EC Innovations. Every document on every project is logged, safeguarded and monitored, every step of the way. And this compliance mindset extends throughout the organization, right down to the oversight that project managers exercise over the working practices of each and every linguist. We've worked on thousands of projects with thousands of clients. Project security has never been breached. Data and IP integrity has never been compromised.
