Requirements & Challenges
Rocket Medical approached our translation agency with a project that required the translation of various documents such as IFUs (Instructions for Use), manuals, and technical specifications into 21 different languages. The company’s goal was to ensure that their products met the requirements of international regulatory bodies and could be sold in markets worldwide.
The challenge was that the translation had to be of the highest quality to ensure accuracy, consistency, and readability across all languages. Rocket Medical’s products are critical to patient safety and the translation had to be error-free to ensure that healthcare professionals worldwide could use their products safely and effectively.
Our Approach & Solution
The dedicated account manager started by conducting a thorough analysis of the project requirements and the client’s needs. We put together a team of experienced linguists, proofreaders, and project managers to oversee the translation project from start to finish.
Our team began by selecting linguists who had experience in the medical industry and were native speakers of the target languages. All MLC linguists are subject to rigorous screening and selection to ensure quality, accuracy, and consistency.
Next, we developed a project plan that included timelines, milestones, and clear communication channels with the client. We assigned a dedicated project manager who was responsible for ensuring that the project ran smoothly, on time, and on budget. The project manager was the main point of contact for the client and liaised with the linguists and proofreaders throughout the project.
Once the translation was complete, our team of expert proofreaders reviewed the documents to ensure that they were free of errors and met the client’s quality standards. The proofreaders checked for consistency, accuracy, readability, and adherence to the client’s brand guidelines.
The Result
Our approach, solution, and expertise allowed Rocket Medical to achieve their goal of providing safe and effective medical devices to healthcare professionals worldwide. By successfully translating their documents into 21 different languages, we enabled Rocket Medical to meet international regulatory requirements with ease, allowing the company to sell their products worldwide. The translations were of the highest quality, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and readability across all languages.
The client was extremely satisfied with the end result, and the project was delivered on time and on budget. We look forward to providing ongoing support and additional services to Rocket Medical as their trusted language partner.
Can one of the biggest challenges the aviation logistics industry faces be solved?
It's normal for large aviation manufacturers to have years of back log on their order books. According to Suman Sarkar in the ‘The Supply Chain Revolution: Innovative Sourcing and Logistics For A Fiercely Competitive World’ the main reason why large commercial aviators have this backlog is their breakdown-down in communication throughout their large supply chains due to the sheer size of the chain with hundreds of businesses throughout the...

The Chinese New Year 2021
When thinking about your translation project, one of the points you need to take into consideration is the public holidays in the target market country. Is the launch or shipping of your product going to fall on a public holiday? Does your product allow for time to be spent in a container waiting to clear customs while the target country observes their holidays? When organising to exhibit your products/services in your desired target market...

What does this mean? Know your audience Basically, localisation is translation plus full adaptation to the target culture and the target market. Let's start with translation itself. You have your website or game translated into the target...
Expansion and Contraction in Translation: Why You Need to Be Aware
Not all languages are built the same way, and not all languages say the same things in the same way. A phrase that’s short and pithy in one language may be long and rolling in another. There are even times when a simple word in one language will have no real equivalent in another language -- requiring instead, a not-so-simple explanation. And when you’re dealing with translation, this can make a major difference. Page Layout Whether it’s a...
What makes a translator qualified?
Whilst there is no universally-recognised international certification for translators and professional linguists, most nations have established standards for translation, whether by law, or through semi-official bodies such as the UK’s Chartered Institute of Linguists, also known as the IoL. This is a practical as well as a cultural necessity, since accurate translation is crucial in business, as well as matters of civil, criminal and...
