Idiom Technologies and acrolinx GmbH Expand Strategic Partnership



    Idiom(R) Technologies, Inc. (Idiom), the leading independent
    supplier of SaaS and on-premise server-based globalization management
    systems (GMS), and acrolinx GmbH, the leading producer of quality
    assurance tools for technical information, today announced the signing
    of an OEM partnership. This collaboration unites two powerful forces
    in information development and localization tools, providing customers
    with integrated terminology lifecycle management - from authoring
    through localization.

    Under the new agreement, Idiom will OEM acrolinx technology as
    part of WorldServer to give customers terminology lifecycle management
    in a single end-to-end solution for term validation, maintenance and
    usage processes. The initial Idiom WorldServer and Acrolinx
    acrocheck(TM) product integration will continue to provide accurate
    and consistent content reuse, reduce translation time and costs,
    improve quality and minimize the liabilities of poor translations.

    "This partnership is the result of customer-driven requests for
    end-to-end terminology lifecycle management", said Mike Iacobucci,
    president and CEO of Idiom Technologies. "This is just the beginning
    of a long-lasting relationship that brings the information and
    localization communities together to offer an outstanding solution to
    customers. Through one vendor, our mutual customers can now save time
    and costs by accessing clean, consistent and accurate source content,
    achieving the linguistic quality assurance we believe is paramount to
    any globalization management system."

    Andrew Bredenkamp, acrolinx CEO agrees: "We know, and our
    customers confirm, that managing terminology quality and consistency
    at the source can result in substantial improvements in translation
    processes, with impressive reductions in cost and time-to-market."
