Features of Technical Report Translation

Strong timeliness. Technical reports can quickly present the latest scientific research results, usually about a year earlier than publication in journals. Some results will not even be published in journals, but will be disseminated directly in the form of technical reports.

Extensive content. It covers a wide range, involving almost the entire field of science and technology, and also extends to social sciences, behavioral sciences and even some humanities, which requires extremely high knowledge reserves from translators.

Confidentiality requirements. Many technical reports are closely related to government scientific research activities and high-tech, so there are relatively strict controls on the scope of use, which requires special attention to information security and confidentiality during the translation process.

The quality varies greatly. Most technical reports are derived from contract research projects and written by engineers and technicians. Due to factors such as time constraints and confidentiality requirements, their quality varies greatly, which also brings certain challenges to translation work and requires translators to have strong identification and optimization capabilities.

Unique format. Each page of the report is usually a separate volume, simply bound and serially numbered, and specific specifications must be followed when translating and formatting.

Technical Report Translation Quote

When seeking technical report translation services, the first thing that everyone is concerned about is the fee. Technical report translation belongs to the category of written translation. Airui Global Translation calculates the fees based on the number of translated words. The specific statistical method follows the standard of "Translation Service Specification Part 1: Written Translation" (GB/T1936.1 - 2008). For common document formats, such as Microsoft Word 2010, it can be directly counted through the review/word count/word count function; if it is in PDF format, it is converted to a Word document with the help of a tool and the word count is counted, and the final quotation is in units of 1,000 words. The price per 1,000 words of technical report translation is mainly affected by factors such as the translation language, the difficulty of the text, the delivery time and the translation volume. However, for some special engineering industry technical reports, since they involve a large number of uncommon professional vocabulary, they require highly professional translators, or even senior translation experts to intervene, and the cost will be significantly increased. It should be noted that the actual price of technical report translation is subject to the real-time quotation of Airui Global Translation Company, because we will flexibly adjust the price according to the details of the specific translation project. For projects with large translation volumes, we will provide certain preferential policies, and the specific discount range can be negotiated and determined based on actual conditions.

If a translation company lacks a standard and reasonable quotation system and asks for prices at will, it is most likely an informal company. The current translation market is mixed, and some emerging informal translation companies have not yet established a complete quotation system, and the prices are chaotic. Such companies should obviously not be the choice of customers. Professional translation companies have significant advantages in terms of language ability, grasp of language habits, compliance with industry standards, and use of professional terminology, and can fully meet customers' expectations and needs.

As a professional translation service provider, Airui Global Translations has nearly 20 years of rich experience. We have specially set up a professional report translation project team. For technical report translation projects, we will select experienced translators who are familiar with professional terminology in various fields and have a deep industry background to form the project team. At the same time, we have established a rigorous and complete translation process. After the translation is completed, senior translation project managers or reviewers will conduct multiple rounds of review and proofreading to ensure the professionalism, accuracy and standardization of the translation, and comprehensively guarantee the quality of technical report translation.
