Measuring Translation Quality
LISA QA model
This is one of the most reputable system that is used by editors to quantize the translation quality of a work.
The system sets a bunch of perimeter and allocate scores to different standards. Editor will add up all the scores of the standards to show an overall score of a project. This would also let the editor know the performance of a translator.
3-Layer Proofreading and Editing Mechanism
This is a mechanism invented by Spear to allocate sufficient resources on quality checking and management measures to ensure the quality of a project.
There is always a Project Coordinator, an Editor with a team of linguists to handle a project.
Spear QA Model
Used together with SPTS, a linguistic system patented by Spear, is a prevention measure for managing the quality throughout the whole process a translation project.
Steps for measuring quality throughout the translation project
Measuring and fixing quality for a translated file maybe one of the way to control quality, but not the most efficient. Quality control has to be done throughout the whole project management process so that quality can be reflected from every aspect of a project.
Here are the steps.
Step 1, communicate with the client
Expectations vary among clients, and the job of a project coordinator is to align client’s expectation with the outcome of a translation project.
Step 2, choosing the right translator
Jargon and tone would not be compromised if handled with a good hand. Some topics need to be handled by translator who has a certain related backgrounds.
Step 3, establish glossary list
Jargon and specific terminologies have to be communicated well. This would also enhance the consistency of a project if it is bulk and handled by multiple translators.
Step 4, deliver QA & QS measures
Quality controlling measures will be held out at this step.
