TOURISM BC CHOOSES TRANSLATIONS.COM
British Columbia's Official Travel Planning Site Implements GlobalLink Project Director to Manage its Multilingual Web Content
NEW YORK, NY, November 12, 2008 – Translations.com, a world leader in enterprise translation services and globalization management system (GMS) technology solutions, today announced that it has been engaged by Tourism British Columbia, the province's official tourism organization, to support localization of HelloBC.com, its consumer-oriented travel planning website, in preparation for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Vancouver.
<--break-->In addition to engaging Translations.com to perform localization into three languages (Japanese, Chinese, and Korean), Tourism British Columbia selected Translations.com's GlobalLink Project Director to help manage translation workflow. Further, in order to allow Tourism British Columbia's in-country reviewers to approve all content before it goes live on the web, Tourism BC is also implementing GlobalLink Online Review – a collaborative tool that allows translators to review content in a user-friendly environment.
"According to Holly Cuny, Online Programs Manager of Tourism British Columbia, "Translations.com did an excellent job collaborating with our marketing teams in Asia. They provided training, coordinated the review process, and performed the testing of the software to ensure everything was running smoothly. We were very impressed with the high level of service they provided."
Tourism British Columbia plans to launch a German-language website in early 2009. Phil Shawe, Translations.com's President and CEO, added, "This is a prime example of how best-practice translation-related technology can be used to drive efficiency in the translation and review process. We were honored to be selected by Tourism British Columbia for this project and look forward to working with them on their German website in the coming year."
