Blitranslations Meets Wide Range Of Business Needs

The Boston Language Institute has provided translation and interpreting services to companies nationwide for nearly 20 years, yet it remains best known for its foreign language and English programs. In an effort to broaden the public's perception of its capabilities, the Institute has established blitranslations, a full-service division dedicated exclusively to translation, interpreting and desktop publishing.

"Many people identify The Boston Language Institute as an educational resource only,"said Siri Karm Singh Khalsa, president of the Institute. "While we're proud of our reputation for educational excellence, we want people to know that we do more. By spinning off the translation department as blitranslations, we are reaffirming our commitment to translation services."

The Institute's translations business quadrupled in the 1990s thanks to the Institute's pool of the linguistic talent, its focus on quality, and its commitment to customer service. The blitranslations division will facilitate continued growth while delivering the same high level of performance that clients have come to expect.

Client companies span a wide range of industries, including health care, financial services, advertising, education, high technology, biotechnology, law and consumer products. Among blitranslations' distinguished clientele are AT&T, Beth Israel Hospital, Harvard University, Hill-Holiday, Gillette, IBM, John Hancock, Lotus Development Corp, Raytheon and Wellington Management.

Multiple Capabilities Under One Roof:

Due to the rapid evolution of the global marketplace and the growth of the Unites States' own ethnic markets, American executives can longer rely solely on English to do business. They may need to understand a complex technical document written in Hungarian or conduct a meeting with a group of Taiwanese executives who are not proficient in English.

With a worldwide network of talented linguists, including over 1,600 translators, interpreters and editors, blitranslations offers its services in over 140 languages, from Arabic to Zulu. Language professionals are selected in accordance with the specific requirements of each project.

Services Include:

Translations: In order to ensure that translations are both accurate and appropriate, blitranslations uses only translators and editors with native fluency in the target language, expertise in the subject matter of the document and the years of professional experience. For technical documents, blitranslations taps into the database of language professionals who specialize in legal, medical, financial and most technological subjects.

Desktop Publishing: Translated documents are produced in a variety of formats and media. Because blitranslations has complete word-processing and desktop publishing facilities in-house, desktop publishers and production staff can provide text as hard copy and / or electronic file in most major word-processing and graphic applications, including Word for Macintosh or Windows, Word Perfect for Windows, Quark Xpress, Pagemaker and Powerpoint. Moreover, staff can also produce EPS files, PDF files, camera-ready copy on RC paper and color separation on film. They can also coordinate the film output and printing.

Interpreting: blitranslations provides professional interpreters for meetings, conferences, depositions, and trials, as well as industry-specific interpreting assignments. Both simultaneous and consecutive interpreting services are available. All interpreters have advanced education and/or professional training in the designated subject matter.

In addition to all of the above, blitranslations can provide voice-over talent and arrange a recording studio. Foreign language audio and video-tapes can also be transcribed and translated onto hard copy or electronic files.
