Translation for EU institutions and agencies
Institutional translation with terminology and deadlines in view
EU institutional documents need consistent terminology, the right file format and a clear delivery schedule. Send us your brief and reference materials for a quotation.
We work with the style guides, reference files and terminology supplied for the assignment, with a project manager coordinating delivery.
Documents and workflows
The source material for an assignment may include institutional publications, legal and policy texts, communications, agency documents or supporting material. Different content types call for different levels of review and different reference sources. We scope the production route against the instructions in your brief.
Where you provide terminology lists, style guides, reference translations or approved titles, we use them to guide the assignment. Institutional resources such as IATE can also inform terminology where appropriate. Queries can be referred back to your nominated contact.
Working to the publication calendar
An institutional deadline is often part of a wider sequence of reviews and publication steps. Share the date you need our delivery, any intermediate milestones and the format your team must receive. We will confirm the schedule and dependencies when quoting.
For recurring work, consistent terminology and version control are important. Let us know which source version is final, how updates will be communicated and who will approve terminology decisions.
Procurement and quality
We can discuss purchase-order requirements, invoicing and the evidence needed for your supplier process. Transferendum holds ISO 9001, ISO 17100 and ISO 18587 certification; the applicable service and review steps are agreed for each assignment.
Where post-editing is requested, specify the quality requirements, any technology restrictions and the material to be reviewed. We will confirm the work and delivery requirements in the quotation.
A recurring institutional assignment may need established titles, style conventions and terminology from earlier work. Provide the relevant references and the delivery instructions associated with the assignment.
Questions
