Technical Translations
McElroy Translation’s project management includes project planning and scheduling, client communication, team coordination, cost control, project tracking and reporting, change management, troubleshooting and problem solving, and a project wrap.
Project Management Process
McElroy’s project managers use our workflow system to leverage the expertise and judgment of human resources, whether that involves capturing and retaining the value of previous work, creating exception-based “alerts” to augment more traditional reporting, or developing highly customized and complex workflows that combine machine and human translation to meet a particular customer’s needs.
By using this technology, McElroy’s project managers are able to focus more attention on planning, customer interaction, and problem solving. Communications are improved in that we can easily predefine notification and alert messages to optimally manage individual projects and suit the preferences of each client.
