tf-term: simply professional
terminology management

You disseminate knowledge with your corporate publications. But that’s not all: You also communicate your brand’s message. That’s why you want your company to speak with one voice in all your publications. But how can this be ensured across a variety of authors, text types and languages? The key is efficient terminology management.

What do we mean by that? Knowledge is conveyed through words. Knowledge can only be communicated successfully if all participants use the same term for the same subject or fact. In this way you avoid misunderstandings, costly inquiries and inconsistent content. The need for consistent terminology begins in the source language and continues with the translation into the target languages. This is where tf-term comes into play:
