The execution of translation projects involves complex file transfers among team members, which are prone to errors due to manual processing. Our translation workflow replaces traditional email communication, enabling controlled web uploads and downloads of every file. Project members can track the status of files, quickly identify errors and delays, and efficiently manage translation jobs using word counts imported from tools like Trados. The integrated system supports freelance databases, incident management, project cost tracking, and invoicing, ensuring a seamless experience from project creation to delivery.
