US firms expanding into Japan
For translation into Japanese, US firms often delegate this to their Japanese rep or subsidiary, but control can be lost and quality may deteriorate. We use native speakers of Japanese who thoroughly understand English and who work with the parent company here in the US to ensure that nothing is lost in translation. We handle brochures, manuals, proposals, contracts, etc.
Typical “into English” projects include:
- Information from Japan for "market intelligence" including competitor brochures and websites, articles from the press, etc.
- Re-translation into English of critical Japanese documents (license agreements, etc.) to verify the accuracy of the Japanese and avoid later disputes.
- Customer feedback (As part of their CRM in Japan, some US companies have already set up on-line systems for gathering customer responses, which must be translated into English.)
- Japanese patents
