eTeams is proud to announce that we are now fully EN15038:2006 certified for our translation and localisation services.

EN15038 is a quality standard specifically written for the Translation industry and published by the European Committee for Standardisation.  Translation Service providers may choose self-declaration that they have applied this standard or undergo third party certification.

eTeams chose to demonstrate conformance through formal certification by an auditing body, rather than through the informal approach offered by self-declaration.  

Nana Luke, eTeams Managing Director commented “This is a significant quality standard and we are delighted to have achieved full certification”.

Luke continued “Too often quality is emphasised by language providers not prepared to undergo formal third-party certification across their whole company, relying rather on certification for part of their company and/or self-declaration. By comparison, we consider full certification through an external auditing body the only way forward”.

Notably, this standard is being used by the European Union as a quality benchmark in its tender specifications.
