Translation and Supplier Communication
Most supplier problems aren't caused by dishonesty. They happen when a specification means one thing in your language and something else by the time it reaches the workshop.
Who this service is for
Buyers who work directly with a Chinese supplier and want their technical requirements to arrive intact, and buyers who need someone in the meeting who understands both the language and the product.
Services
- Translate your specification, drawing notes and tolerances into Chinese, using the terms a workshop actually uses.
- Translate the factory's answers, quotes and objections into English, German, Spanish or Portuguese.
- Interpret live during meetings and video calls, even when a question needs asking twice.
- Write up what was agreed in both languages, so there's a single record instead of two versions.
Languages
With you: English, German, Spanish and Portuguese. With the factory: Chinese.
We work with you in English, German, Spanish and Portuguese, and with the factory in Chinese. If you need another language, we'll tell you plainly whether we can cover it.
What you get
- The translated specification, in both languages and in a single document.
- Meeting notes recording what was agreed, in both languages.
- Clear flags when a term has no precise equivalent and the risk calls for a decision from you.
Translation questions
Is this a certified or official translation?
No. This is commercial and technical translation for your project. An official translation requires a certified translator; we'll tell you so if that's what you need.
Can you join for just one call?
Yes. Interpretation can be hired on its own, without any other service.
