Comprehensive Knowledge Management Technologies Will Prove Key for Language Services

LTC, a leading provider of language technology solutions, highlights the importance of improved processes for knowledge management in the language service industry.

London, United Kingdom, May 29, 2014 --(PR.com)-- The Language Technology Centre is recognised for its leading multilingual business management system LTC Worx. An initial investigation has shown a growing need for improved information management solutions to better support the operations of the corporate language service departments and language service providers. LTC will analyse the benefits of knowledge management technology for language services, where many projects require well-coordinated yet informal collaboration.

“Collaboration is emerging as a focal area driving the industry. At LTC, we see new applications of knowledge management to be a key factor to improving the communication and the use of valuable information during knowledge-intensive language projects. A more advanced method to increase efficiency through knowledge transfer is needed,” Adriane Rinsche, Managing Director at LTC, explains the motivation.

LTC will deploy and evaluate KnowHow, a cloud-enabled knowledge management solution. The results of these activities will lead to enhanced collaboration and information management. KnowHow will demonstrate the use of social business principles where professional community networking is utilised in functional areas of the business to improve communication and engagement between colleagues.

LTC creates innovative workflow automation processes that improve management and collaboration in various scenarios for the multilingual business. With the evaluation of KnowHow, the expertise of knowledge workers throughout the multilingual production process will be enhanced by effective communication and access to relevant information.

The KnowHow project is a part-EU funded project addressing two major ICT trends: Cloud Computing, through the utilisation of Platform-as-a-Service, and the increasing application of Social Business or Enterprise 2.0 concepts.
