Localization for the life sciences industry demands the highest quality and accuracy because it can have a direct impact on people's lives and health. Quality localization must meet the compliance requirement not unlike other aspects of the industry such as the design, manufacturing and distribution of products and services. The highly regulated nature of the life sciences industry poses unique challenges to localization vendors in this field.

CSOFT redefines localization for the life science industries by combining highly accurate translation with measurable quality and best-of-breed technology and processes. Relying on our professional in-country experts in medical and clinical research fields, CSOFT provides certified translation for the pharmaceutical, medical device, biotech, and healthcare industries in most languages.

Measurable quality
Taking advantage of our experience in the industry, CSOFT has assembled a set of translation quality criteria and metrics to measure our translation quality and to help train our own linguistic teams. These metrics also provide our clients with a mechanism to verify translation quality and compliance with established industry standards. Traditionally, quality measurement on translation in the life science industry has largely been subjective. In most cases, the client in-country reviewer would mark up the translated documents and then send them back to the translation vendor for change implementations. There is usually no standardized measurement metrics for determining or rating quality. Using CSOFT's quality metrics, we are able to quantify the quality of our work.
