SDL Enables Austria's Central Bank to Effectively Manage Terminology

SDL solution provides management of terminology and linguistic assets

Challenged with delivering an ever-increasing number of highly complex translation and editing projects, the Language Services team of the Oesterreichische Nationalbank (OeNB) needed to effectively manage terminology. A best practice terminology management solution would enable the team to cope more effectively with increasingly complex or newly-emerging subject areas in which it was working. In response, SDL MultiTerm(R) was deployed as part of a coordinated and integrated SDL Global Information Management solution. The solution provides intelligent management of and centralized access to the broad spectrum of both central banking and corporate terminology.

• SDL MultiTerm
• SDL Trados

• No unified source of terminology, lack of documented central banking terminology
• Need to ensure term consistency across teams, publications and projects
• Growing international reporting, briefing and analytical tasks requiring greater centralization of linguistic assets
• Rising complexity of source texts and emergence of new subject areas
• No method to systematically share information (terminology, corporate wording) across departments

• Established centralized repository of multilingual information assets
• Eliminated repetitive and time-consuming research
• Ensured consistent usage of terminology across all publications
• Speeded the delivery of projects by translators and revisors working with approved terminology
• Enabled cross-departmental knowledge sharing by pooling intellectual capital and resources
