There are 5 simple reasons why you will benefit working with us.

Integrated services
We offer a wide range of translation services: translation, DTP, terminology creation, software localization, Translation Memory creation (alignment). We translate documents in almost all electronic formats as well as printed versions. We can also provide long-run and short-run publications of the translated documentation.
Quality control
Service quality control management provided by our company is based on rules and regulations of international standards ISO 90001:2001 (ГОСТ РИСО 9001-2001). Each translated document is edited by a specialist in a specific field. After that professional proofreaders check the final version. Special attention is paid on terminology and style.
Multilingual capacity
STAR Group includes 51 subdivisions in 33 countries on 4 continents. Due to this vast and flexible internal structure the desired translation could be made by a native speaker in the corresponding subdivision of STAR Group.
Cost saving
One of our undeniable advantages is Translation Memory technology used by our translators. Transit software allows our customers to cut their expenditures due to automatic handling of internal repetitions, pretranslated and partly pretranslated segments. This feature allows to reduce translation costs by halves.
Customized approach
STAR SPb doesn’t accept standard solutions that would fit everyone. The process is organized in an individualized way to satisfy each customer specific needs and optimize project costs maintaining high quality of translation
Principles of work performance
All companies included into STAR Group are united by the core translaion ideology based on three main principles:
- A quality translation can be provided only by a native speaker
- The mandatory factor of a quality translation is the “four-eyes principle”: any text after having been translated is doublechecked by the editor
- New technologies are compulsory in modern translation industry
Excersing the first principle STAR Group employees implement translations only into their native languages. STAR Group is able to make translations almost with any language pair due to branches all over the world.
The second principle is performed thanks to qualified editors working on full-time basis. They are not only professionally trained linguists with deep knowledge of language but they also have competence in specific technical fields.
Realizing the third principle, STAR Group has developed the professional CAT-tool TRANSIT based on the technology of Transaltion Memory. This tool has become popular among translators all over the world.
Strict observance of all three principles guarantees high quality of translation as well as its stylistic and terminological consistancy, even in case translations are made with large time intervals.
