What is Terminology Management?
Terminology management is the life-cycle process of terminology. All consumers and businesses worldwide deal in terminology; context specific terms that should be universally understood across languages, regions, industries and sciences.
Why is terminology management important?
Terminology is vital for reducing ambiguity and facilitating universal communication. In its simplest form, it’s about using the correct term in a specific context. Sometimes it’s as simple as using a correct translation, other times it’s about keeping your business branding consistent. Terminology management is about how you introduce, store, administrate and communicate your terminology.
Considering the depth, breadth and variety of specialized information, along with innumerous translation requirements associated with companies operating internationally, it is imperative that terminology management be conducted with the highest standards in accuracy and efficiency. For companies to achieve these goals, it becomes equally important for them to engage undisputed experts when it comes to managing complicated terminological challenges.
