Background

Our client required various automobile feature manuals, training and installation manuals, minutes of meeting, brochures, and website materials translated from Japanese to English. This global leader wanted to share content generated in the Japan facilities with the rest of their global offices.

Challenges

Our client expected tight turnarounds without affecting translation quality.

The files contained highly technical terminology, complex graphs, and non-editable figures.

Numerous formatting instructions and an elaborate technical terminology list had to be followed.

The expected response time from the Client Servicing (CS) team was less than 15 minutes.

The client expected 100% on-time delivery.

The automotive manufacturer had zero error tolerance. In automotive translation, accuracy and precision are very crucial. Even a slight inaccuracy can have serious repercussions for the client and their brand.

Ulatus provided expert translation support, ensuring technical accuracy and cultural relevance throughout the project.

Cost: Using CAT tools and our translation memory strategy helped reduced client cost-per-character by 75%.
