ALM works with some of the best-known names in the automotive industry, supporting them with technical translations for a variety of purposes such as technical documentation, user manuals and marketing collateral. Since 2002, ALM has teamed up with the world’s most experienced automotive engineering translators and, combined with an in-house team of linguistic revisers, ALM has the capability and experience to translate all types of documents and content.

Who does ALM provide translations for in this sector?

With many years of experience completing multilingual projects for the sector, we have worked with most if not all business types related to this industry, including:

Car manufacturers & distributors

Motorcycle manufacturers & distributors

Heavy goods vehicle (HGV) specialists

Vehicle regulation bodies

With the automotive sector seeing a substantial increase in global profits in emerging markets such as East Asia, India and Latin America, localising documents for these markets has become essential.

How does ALM support the automotive industry?

As an automotive industry translation expert, ALM supplies translations of the following documentation:

Technical & process documentation

Technical and process documentation enables manufacturers to efficiently scale their operations without compromising on end-product quality or safety. ALM translates these documents expertly to ensure products are consistently manufactured within specifications, no matter in which market your workforce is located.

Vehicle & machinery user manuals

Whether your organisation produces family saloons or specialised heavy goods vehicles, the requirement for clear user manuals for the end-user will remain, whether in digital or hard copy format. ALM’s ability to translate and localise manuals into over 80 different languages will give your brand a competitive edge when it comes to exploring new markets.

New vehicle launch & product strategy content

Having provided translation services for numerous vehicle launches, our team can help create market-specific product strategy content that will support cross-market success.

Technical marketing collateral & technical illustrations

Technical marketing collateral & illustrations must be localised to cater to your target markets in order to achieve coverage in trade magazines and other relevant outlets.

E-learning content specific to the automotive industry

E-learning provides an intuitive and efficient method of training staff, especially useful when your organisation recruits across the globe. Our internal processes enable ALM to integrate seamlessly with your existing e-learning platform to provide a cost-effective and quickly deployed solution for multilingual, cross-cultural training.

Automotive legal and regulatory documentation

Working with the brightest minds in automotive translation, we only use the most experienced translators for your project. With localised expertise in legal and regulatory affairs, you can rest assured your official documentation is in safe hands.

Aftersales catalogues

Fully localised aftersales care ensures your brand maintains a strong relationship with your customers. Using a local voice in your literature also helps to consolidate trust in overseas markets.

Recall specific texts and translations

Product recall documentation needs to be translated accurately and is often time critical. ALM helps ensure the localisation process runs as smoothly as possible in all of your overseas markets.

We can also help with:

Warranty documentation

Marketing and communications

Staying on brand

In our experience, manufacturers often prefer to use their own in-house or “preferred” terminology. To ensure that brand terminology is used for all your content, our team create specific glossaries and translation memories for each client.

PEUGEOT MOTOR COMPANY PLC is one of ALM’s longest-standing clients. In addition to providing them with professional automotive translation services, ALM is also the approved translation validator for the UK office.

This validation service sets the benchmark for their quality expectations. Our linguistic experts also have their finger on the pulse of the industry, which changes continuously in terms of technology and market reach.

Partnering with other well-known car and supply chain companies in the automotive sector, ALM has all the right credentials to become your linguistic partner.

ALM boasts a portfolio of aftermarket solutions customers such as Meritor and Hubitools.
