Some companies are just now recognizing the value of using translation technologies and are trying to shoehorn automation into their already existing rigid systems. Connective Language Services has been structured around translation technology from the day the company was founded. CLS's revolutionary approach to technology significantly improves productivity, shortens the time from project order to translation delivery, resulting in significant benefits to our clients.

The backbone of our operations is our workflow system. It is used to automate many localization tasks such as translation memory processing as well as controlling the information flow from our central office to our offices and translators worldwide. New jobs are processed automatically and distributed instantly using the best available resources for all tasks. Using a simple Internet browser, our clients can submit new jobs as well as check on the status of existing ones.
Translation memory is used for all our jobs and the centralization of all the translation memory databases on our workflow server allows us to pre-translate documents not only faster but also more efficiently. Maximum reuse, in some cases over 80%, is always guaranteed.
This means you can get valuable on-line information whenever (and wherever) you want, such as:

    • Possibility to directly submit new jobs into our system.
    • Instant estimates when you submit a new job.
    • Job status information: when will the job be completed? Helps you with your deadlines.
    • Cost statistics classified based on your requirements (per product, language, time period, and so on). This allows you to plan your localization budget year round.

We use our proprietary automated translation technology for high volume technical translations. Our software analyzes the linguistic structure of text and translates it using enormous terminology databases. It "learns as it processes" so the efficiency of the automated translation is constantly improving. And because our experienced translators—working from their countries of origin—validate all machine-translated text, you are assured of text accuracy.

Other Benefits Are:

Data Consistency. With Connective, all data is centralized. A document pre-translated using our system is always compared for previous translation against all the documents from that same company. These reference documents are ranked by relevancy to ensure the most accurate translation possible.

Automated Resource Allocation. Our centralized resource database ensures that the most appropriate person is always chosen for each job, a virtually impossible task in a manual process.

Scalability. Even when the volume of translation increases, our clients need no additional hardware. Our application is a multi-server enabled, which automatically splits tasks between different machines as volume increases without affecting processing time.

Maintenance. Our software is always up-to-date. We don't have to issue patches to all users when a new version is available. Because our application runs on multiple serves, it is always possible to take one offline and install upgrades while production continues. The entire process is transparent to our clients.

 

 



No Charge to Translate
Perfect Matches
:

Connective Language Services uses contextual pretranslation technology. While analyzing the old and new text, our tool compares the sentences preceding and the sentence following the active perfect match. If these sentences are also identical, then the pretranslated segment is deemed contextually accurate. It is automatically locked and cannot, and should not, be edited anymore! WE DO NOT CHARGE OUR CUSTOMERS FOR THESE MATCHES: CUSTOMER SAVINGS ARE IN MANY CASES SIGNIFICANT!


Terminology Management

Precise terminology is just as important as accurate translation. We will create terminology that is precisely individualized to your company. And our advanced technology enables us to insert your company-specific terminology into a networked database that can be easily accessed by approved personnel so that standardization is assured throughout the company. If terminology consistency and workflow efficiencies are important, then Connective is the right translation service for you. Most of our clients find they no longer need scores of translation vendors because Connective does the job right—the first time and every time. And we'll provide terminology management on your timetable, not ours! Our systems also guarantee the security of proprietary information.
