Consulting : Globalization Solutions Practice : World Readiness Assessment

A key offering of the Globalization Solutions practice is the World Readiness Assessment, a technical evaluation of the world-readiness of presentation, business logic and back end layers of a web property, as well as all relevant third-party components. The overall objective is to identify and address the problem of digital asset design (including architecture and development practices) developed without consideration for the requirements of delivering multilingual communication.

Key Steps in the World Readiness Assessment

  • Assess presentation layer for cultural portability of font, graphics, layout, and navigational architecture.
  • Analyze business logic layer for world-readiness of data input/output; string parsing, searching and sorting, data validation and externalization of localizable strings.
  • Evaluate databases and other back-end systems for world-readiness of platform, schemas and design; scalability of hosting solution; and database interactions with middle ware and presentation layer.

The output of the World Readiness Assessment is a customized report that includes a step-by-step plan for bringing all components to a world-ready state. The plan outlines specifications required for functional and technical internationalization and covers such areas as code and script modifications, security requirements and multilingual site design. This knowledge will help you maximize efficiency and minimize risk when deploying multilingual digital content. eTranslate Consulting experts also can help you implement the report's recommendations.
