Project Management

Managing a localization or translation project means to evaluate, budget, schedule, monitor and co-ordinate all the required resources to carry out the tasks involved.

A project manager supervises the translation, testing, engineering and quality assurance tasks.

A localization or translation project often calls for other linguistic tasks. Based on my technical and linguistic skills, I can carry out those tasks for European Spanish. These additional linguistic tasks include but are not limited to:

• Linguistic support to marketing, management, engineering or development teams
• Glossary creation
• Translation Memory creation and maintenance
• Madcap Flare Single-source Authoring content
• Style guides

In localization projects requiring multiple language versions, the advantage of having a single resource performing tasks requiring linguistic and technical expertise in a certain target language, known as pilot language, is applying the results and process to the rest of target languages, avoiding duplicated efforts.
