5 Strengths of Human Science
From the production of Japanese documents to system development and e-learning development, Human Science, a comprehensive document vendor, has a unique focus on Japanese translation and localization, as well as other strengths. We will introduce these strengths in five categories.
1. Higher efficiency and quality in translations through proactive use of new technologies
Many new translation technologies are developed in Europe and the United States and are subsequently adopted throughout the globe.
Human Science belongs to international industry associations, including the Globalization and Localization Association (GALA), to stay at the forefront of the translation industry, pushing the development of the Japanese market while keeping up with the latest technology trends.
In addition to individual technologies, we deploy unique language technology services that combine multiple technologies and tools to greatly improve translation efficiency and quality. We are able to maximize the cost performance of our business by utilizing various technologies at each stage of translation.
2. Organic translations written by knowledgeable and experienced engineers
In the field of translation, background knowledge about the subject matter is essential.
For example, someone who has not studied law cannot accurately translate legal documents. Similarly, someone without knowledge of industrial or manufacturing practices cannot properly translate industry manuals and other technical documents.
At Human Science, we have a specialized teams in the fields of industry and manufacturing, and for nearly 30 years, we have handled translations of various genres, including business manuals and instruction guides. Through close collaboration between engineers and translation/localization specialists with various technical skills, we can provide quick and high level solutions to many technical challenges.
3. High-quality translations delivered with our long-standing commitment to precise language
Human Science got its start with manual creation, which instilled in us an unrelenting desire to provide our customers with the best possible Japanese documents.
This desire now extends to all of our translation and localization services. We employ full-time technical and linguistic reviewers and thoroughly review every project sentence-by-sentence to guarantee that the quality meets our high standards.
In addition, we have a systematic, company-wide quality assurance plan, rather than relying on a handful experienced translators. This allows us to consistently provide high-quality services for both large-scale and specialized projects.
4. Systematized project management know-how.
A stable business system that eliminates personal influence
At Human Science, regardless of the size, we assign a dedicated project manager for each project and establish a system where the same person serves as the customer's contact from the beginning to the end of the project.
In a system where the contact changes for each stage of the work, there is a lack of perspective to oversee the entire project and make judgments.
In addition, the project management methods carried out by each project manager are not dependent on individual abilities, but are based on the international standard system for project management, PMBOK, and follow a carefully crafted common procedure (see figure on the right).
By implementing such measures, we proactively avoid common issues such as "the previous contact was good, but the quality of work has decreased since the contact changed."
5. A robust translator education system that controls quality
and enables continuous quality improvement
Translation is an important profession that greatly influences the final quality of translations and localizations. For that reason, we believe that an education system for translators is of great importance.
Human Science quantifies the work of translators for each project with over 100 unique criteria, and stores all the results in a database to manage the translators' levels.
Translators are able to check their numerical results for each job, as well as review specific feedback documents that detail correction points, suggestions, and guidance, which helps them improve on their next tasks.
The current amount of feedback in our database totals 12,529 cases.
This is six times the amount of exercises performed in a one-year course at a translation school.
From the start, our translators are already an elite group who managed to pass our demanding trial period, with a narrow pass rate of less than 8%, but by further developing their skills through our feedback system, we are able to achieve even higher levels of quality.
