crossFlow and crossProject:
Translation Management and Process Control for Professionals
Summary
Management of translation projects begins with specification of deadlines and target languages, then moves on to assignment of jobs to language service providers, and does not end with the establishment of quality criteria and approval processes.
The Across Language Server guarantees efficient translation management and seamlessly linked work, regardless of whether you translate (or commission translations) in-house or outside your company.
Who is supposed to deliver which translation in which languages by which deadline? How can larger projects be allocated to several translators and still be translated consistently? What happens if the source text is changed during the translation? How can systematic monitoring and release of target texts be assured?
Upon closer examination, "translation" is not just the rendering a text from one language into another, but rather a complex process that begins with translation-oriented authoring of a source text and by no means ends with the correct formatting of the target text. This is all the more true when the principles of using a native speaker and an extra set of eyes result in a large number of actors and in workflows outside company boundaries, even in medium-volume jobs.

Across oversees the entire process, regardless of the document formats that need to be translated, the origin of the related content, and persons who perform the individual workflow steps.
As the central platform, the Across Language Server ensures, for example, that
- all persons involved are working on the basis of the same, consistent data
- a consistent procedure is followed in accordance with defined criteria
- jobs are allocated as appropriate for the situation, even outside the company
- work progress and incurred expenses are always transparent.
At the same time, Across guarantees that even rather complex workflows such as
- regular updating of documents
- allocation of individual jobs to several processors
- relay translation of languages that are dependent on one another
are performed with maximum quality and efficiency.
