Resources to help you succeed

FAQs

How does the system help in selecting the right translator for a job?

Our TBMS uses smart matching to find the perfect translator for each project. The system looks at language pairs, specialisations, availability, rates, quality scores, and past work to suggest the best candidates. You can set it to auto-assign jobs or send offers to ranked translators, which saves time while making sure you get quality results.

How does the system simplify adding new vendors to our database?

New vendors can register themselves through our vendor portal after you send them an invitation. They fill out their own profiles with language pairs, skills, rates, and certifications. The system automatically adds their information to your database, so you don't have to type everything manually. Built-in approval workflows make sure only qualified vendors get activated.

Does this system help with paying our vendors?

Yes. Vendor rates are stored and applied automatically when jobs finish. The TBMS generates payment documents, tracks payment status, and integrates with financial systems, ensuring vendors are paid accurately and on time. 

Can I limit which vendors see certain projects?

Absolutely. You can create restricted vendor pools for specific clients or industries. This keeps sensitive work like medical or legal translations limited to your most trusted linguists. It also helps maintain quality standards for premium clients.

What happens if a vendor doesn't deliver on time?

The system tracks delivery performance automatically. You can see which vendors consistently meet deadlines and which ones don't. This data helps you make better choices for future projects and have honest conversations with underperforming vendors about improving their service.
