You may have read in the London Financial Times this week about the way in which international organisations are driving down costs through the use of 'virtual' structures. Lingo24 is one such company, endeavouring to keep unnecessary infrastructure costs to a minimum, so that the maximum investment can be made into the areas which truly matter. It means that investment is made in the quality of customer services, rather than in the offices and networks to accommodate in-house workers.
However, the benefits of such an arrangement do not stop there... Technology should not be pursued simply as a cost saving. Through the judicious placement of staff within the three key timezones around the world (Far East, European and Pacific) and the use of web-based project management systems, Lingo24 is able to provide '24/7' coverage at all times, with continuous, full access to all client and project records. This results in a dramatic improvement in time to market for the translation and conversion of content for all parts of our global clientbase.
All this does not happen easily, of course. There are implications for the management methods which we deploy and the development of our software control systems, but each one of these elements has been developed and refined over the last four years, driving Lingo24 to become one of the fastest growing and cost-effective service providers of language services. Ask us to discuss this process with you - you will be amazed about what can be achieved!
