‍
Most of our clients were international institutions working across borders: UN agencies, NGOs, governments and international sport federations. For nearly a decade, we delivered language solutions in more than 20 countries across 4 continents for clients headquartered in 15 different countries. All while running from our Malaysian office. We managed projects in international hubs like Washington DC, Berlin, and Singapore. Following this success we have ventured into Gulf, European & US markets.

Decade-Long Experience Supporting Institutional Organizations

Since very beginning NGOs, nonprofits, government bodies, and UN agencies have represented the lion share of our clientele. Our solutions are built with the unique needs of these organizations in mind.

Service Delivery Across Borders with Local Expertise

Our geographical presence followed our growth. Having successfully delivered services across borders for years, we expanded our formal presence to better support our clients wherever they operate.

Having operations in Malaysia, UAE, Ireland, and the USA means we're closer to our clients and physically present on the ground. We also meet local requirements for procurement and operations that these clients need.

At the same we have centralized project management and quality control to ensure consistency across all our offices.

Support for Field Operations in Remote, Restricted, and Crisis-Affected Environments

We partner with a wide range of NGOs and nonprofit organizations, including those dedicated to development and migration. They require experience managing logistics, navigating security considerations, and delivering reliable support in high-pressure environments.

We're providing language solutions in:

• Restricted areas like shelters, courts and police stations.
• Crisis hit regions: earthquakes, conflicts, pandemics, displacement.

Strict Confidentiality Protocols & Institutional-Grade Security

Language services for governments, the UN system, and sensitive operations require security & confidentiality standards that match the stakes.

Our confidentiality framework includes:

• Data encryption and secure file transfer.
• Vendors' vetting and NDAs: very translator on sensitive projects signs confidentiality agreements and undergoes background verification.
• Audit trails and version control.
• Compliance with and certification to relevant international standards: ISO 17100 (translation services), ISO 27001 (information security), GDPR (EU data protection), and sector-specific regulations (medical, legal, government).
