Automotive companies must make information available in a wide array of languages to meet the needs of their global client base. SDL works closely with key industry players to manage the delivery of all related information into different languages

In today’s global climate providing multilingual content, handbooks, high-quality service manuals, etc. is hugely important. Allowing leading automotive manufacturers to support their customers, dealers and services centers around the globe.

Increasingly automotive manufacturers need to tailor their product content to accommodate product variations and customizations to meet legal, language and cultural preferences and their local customer preferences. Companies like Renault are turning to SDL to help manage the localization processes.

SDL accelerates global delivery of widely-varying, complex content

SDL’s global information management (GIM) solutions and services bring together all relevant content resources, across your content lifecycle – from authoring for a global audience through managing the localization process to publishing. SDL Global Information Management solutions help companies to:

• Re-use approved technical content across multiple documents and delivery channels (e.g. Web, CDs and printed owners and service manuals)
• Speed content authoring processes, improving content consistency and quality and lowering process costs
• Build brand messaging consistency across all content and delivery mechanisms
• Leverage and re-use content created in any authoring environment, in any language – further exploiting existing information assets
• Streamline localization processes, through any combination of project in-sourcing or outsourcing
• Provide an enterprise-wide platform for rapid renewal of content wherever used
