There's a lot involved in software multilingualism with approaches and techniques continually evolving. What was the most cost effective and best solution last year may not be the best now or for the future. Requirements can sometimes be very complex, especially if a strategy needs to be set at a national or regional level or where a language board seeks to define and implement a strategic plan for technology support for their language.
There are many stakeholders, interested parties and organisations motivated to address the challenges related to software multilingualism, these include:
- Software producers who need to enhance their software applications in order to sell them into markets outside of their base language and in multilingual settings.
- Software purchasers who want software to be enhanced to meet their language requirements and/or operate in a multilingual environment.
- Global organisations who have a diverse user base or target audience/market and need to work with users in their preferred language.
- Governments and Language Boards with a mission to promote, develop and produce support for language.
We have over a decade of experience of working with all these types of stakeholders. Our depth of understanding of software language issues can quickly deliver a suite of solutions and assets to provide a framework and set of deliverables for such strategies.
We have developed software language standards, created language packs for market leading applications and have performed deep and comprehensive enhancements for complex product suites such as SharePoint. We can replicate these capabilities into specific languages, provide consultancy and strategic advice. When working with government bodies and language boards, we can license these technologies and solutions on a national and regional basis.
