Assistance with knowledge of English and French and legal background
Most general managers and businesspersons have assistants who perform daily tasks: management of emails, agenda, incoming calls, booking for tickets and hotels, etc. However, for a project abroad, you may probably need an assistant with specific skills (knowledge of several foreign languages, knowledge of diplomatic protocols and principles, and/or legal knowledge of negotiations). The permanent presence of such a professional in the staff will undoubtedly be expensive.
What are the advantages for your company of hiring such an assistant/ interpreter for a foreign project?
- Maintenance of all correspondence and translation of all projects documentation by the same person, which will ensure a consistent and accurate translation of all the key concepts and will greatly facilitate negotiations and avoid misunderstandings;
- Time saving because you will no longer need to desperately look for an interpreter or agency, whenever you need to translate a document or a business letter and send it quickly to your business partner;
- You will always be assisted by one and same person in all situations related to your projects abroad (commercial correspondence, translation of documents, telephone interviews or business meeting), who will be fully informed about the history of your correspondence and other relationships with a business partner. Again, that will save your time and efforts by avoiding unnecessary explanations;
- You will have a permanent interpreter for a particular project who knows the diplomatic principles and carries out all the negotiations. That interpreter will become an integral part for a positive and favourable image of your company and will help you to build a lasting relationship with your partner (whenever a new interpreter is engaged, we spend time to inform how to adapt to the new interlocutor and his/her way of working);
- Finally, if you are assisted not by an interpreter but someone with a legal background, who is acquainted with national and cultural characteristics of your partners, then his/her advice and recommendations will help you to avoid many pitfalls and understand correctly the psychology and logic of your business partners.

Management of your translation project
In practice, there are situations where a company has long-term relationships with foreign partners. There are many documents to translate in a few weeks, months or even years, and the volume is so large and the timing is so tight that a single translator cannot handle or may not be available when you need his/her services. Therefore, we suggest that we can assume the full responsibility for all your translations for a particular project. This means that we:
- in accordance with your needs and your project, we prepare a team of translators that have the necessary skills;
- we provide additional training for interpreters/ translators to ensure that they will fully understand the requirements of your project and its nature;
- We manage and assign the entire flow of translations – all your employees and all your services will have the same interlocutor who will be ready to respond quickly to the request;
- We check the quality of all translations and then send them according to your request to the corresponding departments of your company, to your employees, and/or your business partners;
The main advantage of our service «Management of your translation project» is that your company can always count on us, without worrying about the urgent search for a translator or a translation agency. We also have at your disposal a team of professional translators who are familiar with your project abroad and who match your company’s profile by ensuring accuracy and consistency of the terminology in all translations.
