About this Portal

Home > About this Portal

The Mason Enterprise Center has partnered with Globalization Partners International (GPI) in order to provide our Incubator firms access to high quality translation services. Whether you need an Instant Quick Quote for a documentation project, or if you would like a comprehensive proposal for a complete multimedia, software or website translation project, this portal can help.

This portal is distinctly different from other on-line translation services.

Beginning with your first project:

  1. You are assigned a Globalization Services Team (GST) to handle your account.
  2. This team of human translators, editors, desktop publishing professionals, and localization specialists is selected based on:

    a. Which language pairs you need (i.e., English to Spanish or English to Japanese…)

    b. What subject matter expertise is required (medical, legal, telecommunications)

    c. What types of projects you will be completing (documents, websites, multimedia, and/or software).
  1. A Project Manager is assigned who will be your central point of contact, ensuring your projects are completed on time, within budget and with the highest level of quality possible.
  2. Your team will use Translation Memory tools so all of your translation projects (source and target languages) are stored and can be leveraged to:

    a. Ensure terminology consistency from project-to-project

    b. Allow for cost savings on all previously translated text

    c. Allow for cost-effective and time-efficient updates to all projects
  1. You have the opportunity to review and approve every translation both at the translation stage and desktop publishing stage. Workflows that are convenient for you can be established to facilitate review and approval steps.
  2. You can receive instant documentation estimates via the quick quote feature, or exact estimates and estimates for more complex projects such as website or software localization via the submission of source files to GPI.
  3. Access to On-Line Status Reports to check on your projects.
  4. Secure password protected access for whomever you want.
