In addition, several major enhancements were added to the Lingotek TMS in 2017.

Translation Management System (TMS) Enhancements
New TMS UI
Lingotek’s new translation management system release in 2017 included several features to enhance its User Interface (UI) and streamline project management.

Integrated Quality Checks
Lingotek’s integrated quality checks helped translation providers deliver faster, higher quality translation in 2017. From the Quality tab inside Lingotek’s translation Workbench, project managers, translators, and reviewers can run hundreds of quality checks beyond traditional spelling and grammar. Lingotek’s quality checks use rules to automatically detect thousands of error types to improve overall translation quality.

New TMS Applications (Apps)

Vendor Management
Innovative enhancements to the Lingotek TMS included new Vendor Management capabilities that offer the automation needed to easily manage multiple LSPs, including getting quotes on projects, conducting cost analysis and running reports for invoicing.

Linguistic Quality Evaluation
