Business and Financial
Doing business on the global stage is becoming increasingly complex and delicate requiring a range of skills and expertise, that is why here at Olive Translations we offer the complete translation services package.
We can translate any document or file, in any format and with any specialisation. We can provide interpreters and able presenters. We can advise you on the best interpretation of your message in a foreign language. Simply put, we are here to make sure you succeed no matter where, because accuracy and precision are vital in translation.
We understand that each individual client needs to communicate across the cultural and linguistic barrier efficiently and effectively so it is important to ensure that your international business operations are at the same time very local. Avoiding certain words or phrases in a target market might mean the difference between success and failure of your product or service.
Every company or organisation has a different need every time. Our professional translation services ensure that wherever the translations are aimed at, they are localised.
The Legal Sector
We take the translation of legal documents and materials very seriously, that is why we stand behind our commitment to offer a technical translation that is second to none. Having experts in any particular legal field means you can rest assured that quality is never in question.
The importance of an accurate translation cannot be emphasised enough. At Olive we only use specialist legal translators with a proven track record in translating legal documents. We make sure that our translators hold relevant legal qualifications and have in most cases worked in the legal sector. Some of our areas include:
- Intellectual property, trademarks and copyright
- Property Contracts
- Employment Law
- Marriage or divorce certificates
- Witness statements
- Wills
Since most of our translators are based locally in the target market, this means that they possess the necessary comprehension of local laws and terminology.
Your privacy and confidentiality are of the utmost importance to us. Our translators abide by our strictest confidentiality agreements because we simply understand what is at stake and we respect our clients’ materials.
Technical Translations
Working with translators in every single existing field means that whatever your domain we can match your requirements. Some of the industries and sectors we serve:
- Engineering & Manufacturing
- Oil, Gas & Chemical
- Telecommunications & IT
- Medical & Pharmaceutical
- Automotive
Understanding complex texts in any particular language is difficult enough, but translating this is nearly impossible. That is why it is absolutely vital that a translator is a specialist in any given field.
The translation of complex technical operation manuals for example, often has important health and safety implications and great care has to be taken. You can trust Olive Translations to be as stringent as possible. Proofreaders and editors will examine a translation in every detail to ensure that the translated document is identical to the original.
Extensive experience from within the industry means that technical terms, no matter how detailed, are simply understood.
For clients with particularly large projects we assign an entire team of translators, ensuring critical deadlines are met. Other clients have more long term requirements with a need for constant translation work over an ongoing period of time. Whatever your demands, we can meet them.
Working in almost any format means we can offer a full Desk Top Publishing service. We can recreate your file to match the original. Whether you have blueprints in AutoCAD®, diagrams in Adobe Illustrator® or a product manual in print we deliver the identical versions in as many languages as required.
Advertising, Marketing and Events
Cultural awareness and understanding globally is becoming ever more critical and can mean the difference between success and failure. In the past, incorrectly translated and non-localised slogans or PR campaigns caused offence and often led to products having to be drawn off the market, re-branded or renamed resulting in huge losses.
With our help and consultation you can ensure that you will not follow the mistakes made by others. We can provide various examples for you to choose from thereby ensuring that your message does not get lost in translation.
Exhibiting at international events such as for a new product launch means you are serious about expanding your operations abroad. But have you thought of everything? Communicating in the language of your potential customers is one of the indispensable ways of gaining trust.
We can help provide interpreters and presenters, translate your website and your promotional materials ensuring your potential customers do not remain “potential”.
Your message needs to be adapted so that even if it changes, the meaning and goals remain the same. This can only be done with the right people; we have them.
Websites
Why not translate your website into as many languages as possible? Your business could potentially reach unlimited customers.
Your products, services and their detailed descriptions can be made available into any language desired. Relying on free search engine translation for your customers will turn them away.
With a professional website translation, you can avoid alienating your customers as they are more likely to trust a website that is available not only in their language but is presented in local terms. Our understanding of the target market will ensure that you are indeed a local company, no matter where.
With our simple website service, all you have to do is send us the information that needs translation exactly as it would appear when uploaded and we will send you the finished product.
We can even answer questions or translate feedback and complaints for you on a regular basis, ensuring this way that you stay in touch with your customers all the way.
Education
In a globalised world people are striving to communicate across the language barrier ever more.
With immigration on the rise and with borders erased across Europe and loosened across the world, people are moving increasingly more and learning foreign languages is on the rise.Reproducing accurate educational materials in multiple languages is critical. With an increase in the range of study options available such as over the internet, through distant or virtual learning, educational establishments and organisations recognise the growing market at their disposal. To do this, materials have to be translated and localised in so many more languages than ever before.
At Olive Translations we can help you succeed. We recognise and understand your needs and we will work hand in hand to achieve your objectives. Whether it is test preparation, professional development courses, basic or higher education materials, no matter how simple or complex, our specialist people will help guide you to success.
Together we can raise literacy and skills levels across the world and help fulfil our truly endless potential.
Public Sector and Non-profit
From local government attempting to reach out to a multi-ethnic society to government departments attempting to connect across borders, translation and communication has become an absolute essential in an increasingly interconnected and diverse society.
In some areas English has become a language spoken only by a minority. Responses with education have not been enough with the solutions increasingly being multi-language websites, the provision of interpreters and multi-language materials.
Whatever your language or medium, we have the skills and experience to make sure that your message gets across.
Governments are recognising the necessity to reproduce almost everything into multiple languages. We can help translate information for housing, budget and employment reports, application forms, exams or questions from citizens on a daily basis.
We can help you increase cultural awareness and understanding and help in avoiding an increasingly fragmented society.
