Solutions: for Pharma and BioTech
Reach global markets faster with professional language delivery
As pharmaceutical, biotechnology and consumer healthcare companies strive to develop innovative technologies and products, you face stringent and growing healthcare regulations, revenue-draining patent expirations and intense pressure to get as many products to the global market quickly, at the lowest possible cost.
Tek’s solutions allow for the simultaneous global shipment of increasingly complex products and mandatory product-related content as well as cost-efficient procedures for local language delivery, thus integrating outsourcing partners, dealers, distributors and customers worldwide.
Business value defined: optimal processes achieve globalization goals
With rising R&D costs, shorter product life cycles and increased competition, there is no room for inefficiency. To increase productivity and keep costs low means a measure of business value must be gained from every step that your product undergoes, from discovery through regulatory approval and commercialization.
Tek Solutions Development Services can help by streamlining and optimizing your globalization process for a higher ROI and competitive edge:
- Process Optimization and Localization Supply Chain Audits are carried out to evaluate your processes and project resources, and to provide change management, cost and risk analysis reports and recommendations on how to streamline processes to meet business goals.
- Implementation Services specific to technical writing for localization, content management systems (CMS) and enterprise terminology management (ETM) promote maximum source and translation reuse, authoring integration and brand consistency.
Streamline source creation with localization processes
Whatever the requirement – drug packaging and labeling, clinical trials, product information leaflets, regulatory submissions, marketing materials and catalogs – large volumes of information are created during each of the many steps in development. For global market success, this information needs to be compatible with the language, cultural, regulatory, legal and other business processes of local users.
However, source content created by various groups – from the regulatory and marketing departments to the technical writing and development teams – using different tools, inconsistent terminology and processes can inadvertently affect the overall quality of source content and slow its subsequent localization.
To keep the cost and time requirements of your localization projects as low as possible, the Tek Quality@Source Solution streamlines your source creation and localization processes.
- Start well to finish well. A content audit examines your source creation process and how the content can be localized for technical, format and branding consistency. We provide recommendations and training to assist in improving the quality of source content creation to save cost and time during the localization process.
- Maximize language reuse. By evaluating your linguistic assets such as translation memories, glossaries, style guides, reference material and localization kits Tek Language Quality Audits ensure high-quality translations and high ROI.
- Maximize content reuse. Tek works with you to integrate your content management system (CMS) or source content creation process with the localization (L10N) process. The result maximizes content reuse in both the source and translated versions for cost savings, faster updates and quicker time to market.
