Technical translation — Translation agency — Professionals
Technical-translation leads require both language and subject competence, plus access to approved terminology and expert clarification. Providers should preserve units and references unless an authorised adaptation is agreed and should not convert source gaps into invented specifications.
Service scope
Translation of technical documents or interface material using subject-specific terminology and appropriate review. Manuals, specifications and engineering text require accurate source information and domain competence; translation is not an engineering redesign, safety assessment or permission to alter technical instructions.
What is normally included
- Technical terminology preparation
- Specialist written translation
- Consistency checking
- Coordination of subject review
What is not included
- Invented missing specifications
- Engineering certification
- Silent alteration of safety instructions
Qualification checks
- Verify subject competence
- Review source completeness
- Establish terminology authority
- Identify technical reviewer
- Agree diagram, unit and file handling
Quote guidance
Price translation, terminology work, expert review and formatting separately where appropriate. State the technical-file assumptions and query process, and identify any engineering validation or regulatory review outside the language service.
Lead risks
- The source may use inconsistent terminology
- Technical reviewers may be unavailable
- Diagrams or software strings may need separate extraction work
