Quality Assurance

The Word Hub is certified to ISO 17100:2015 and ISO 9001:2015 standards – placing quality at the heart of everything we do for your peace of mind.

We know that the accuracy of our translation is critical to the safety, reputation and success of our clients’ products and services worldwide.

With this in mind, we place quality at the heart of everything we do.

We expect the semantics, grammar and style of our translations to be as good, if not better, than the source material we started with. Our output often represents a tangible improvement upon the source as a result of the combined skill and attention of our linguists, project managers and formatters.

Our Quality Standards

Our project workflows conform to the internationally recognised Quality Management Standard ISO 9001:2015. Similarly, the way we select, approve and monitor our linguists follows the processes set out within the Translation Services Standard ISO 17100:2015.

The Word Hub achieved certification for both standards in 2021.

In addition, our machine translation projects conform to the requirements outlined in the Post-Editing of Machine Translation Standard ISO 18587:2017.

Our workflows have been carefully mapped and defined in our quality manual to comply with ISO standards.
