Quality Assurance

December 2012: BS EN 15038 – benchmark for quality translations.

In its continuous on-going commitment to quality, Mynnaf is pleased to announce that it is in the process of implementing BS EN 15038, the gold standard for quality translations. As our partner, we have selected TMS Insight, a world-wide market leader in quality management systems, for its implementation.

Kevin McElduff, Group Director at TMS Insight, commenting on this partnership, said “Mynnaf is a great company and I have used their services many times to support our international work. I am delighted to be working with them on BS EN 15038 to formally recognise their excellence and leading position in the translation industry”.

BS EN 15038 – advantages over ISO 9001

Mr. McElduff added, “While ISO 9001 demonstrates a generic commitment to quality management systems, it fails to address the processes that measure quality outcomes specific to the translation industry. The main provisions of BS EN 15038 are specifically designed to address this precise issue and to monitor these processes”.
