Today’s translation work requires wide, thorough knowledge and use of advanced translation technologies and software applications. Translation technologies provide access to numerous information resources and enhance the efficiency, speed and quality of the translation.

Technical competence is a must for translators, editors and the team involved in the translation process in order to meet the dynamic market demands and ensure high quality product.

The SOLTRA policy is to maintain current versions of the main software relevant to translation suppliers and clients, on hardware that is well-specified for the tasks it is called on to perform. These are under constant review and are no longer itemized. Additionally, we encourage and support our freelancers to use regularly advanced translation tools and programs.

Our technical equipment ensures precise completion of the entire translation project and back up in compliance with the standards for safety and confidentiality.

Key component in our translation methodology is the guaranteed consistency of terminology ensured by the use of specialized translation software. More than 10 years we are enthusiastic users of leading CAT tools including SDL Trados, MemoQ, Translation Workspace, Xliff Editor, Transit, DocZone, Idiom, QT Linguist. CAT tools are used wherever possible to build up a database of client-preferred terminology for each client, to speed up translations containing considerable amounts of repetition and to ensure consistency of terminology and style.

Additionally, together with the good practices developed by our company we rely on integrated electronic project management system tailored around our needs. The system manages all processes from quoting, through project management to invoicing, saving time and avoiding human errors. The system provides us with real time access to the assignments and enables to plan and efficiently allocate the assignments, follow up and control everyone involved in the project.
