TERMINOLOGYOne decision can repeat hundreds of times.
Names, defined terms, medical diagnoses, technical components and legal concepts can recur throughout a large file. Terminology needs to be controlled across the project instead of reinvented document by document.
PRIORITYNot every page has the same deadline.
Large legal matters can be delivered by hearing date, witness, motion, date range or evidence category. Counsel can identify what must be translated first while the remaining material continues.
FORMATPage count alone does not price the work.
Word count, tables, scans, handwriting, exhibits, drawings, mixed file formats and layout requirements can materially change production effort even when two projects have the same number of pages.
CERTIFICATIONNot every page needs the same formality.
Some documents may require certification for filing while others are only being translated for internal review. The receiving party should determine which formalities are actually necessary.
