Internationalization Engineering
Companies that build internationalization engineering into their product life cycles find it to be the cost-effective, efficient approach to design products that perform well in the global marketplace. But it can be costly if you lack the resources needed to manage the process.
You can control the process and your costs more effectively by taking advantages of Merrill Brink’s expert internationalization (I18N) engineering services.
Internationalization engineering consulting
Merrill Brink is recognized for its superior internationalization engineering services. Our internationalization engineers work closely many multinational companies to address a wide range of engineering concerns, including:
- Ensuring that products are designed so that it can be adapted to various languages and regions without engineering changes
- Designing the handling of textual elements so they are stored outside the source code and retrieved dynamically
- Building in support for new languages so they can be added without requiring recompilation
- Ensuring that culturally dependent data such as dates and measurements conforms to specific locales and languages
- Designed products which ensure rapid localization thus promoting minimal trail times between English and language releases
We can customize our internationalization engineering services to suit your specific requirements.
Internationalization testing
We also offer first-stage product testing for I18N issues as part of our services. Our test team will collaborate with you to identify issues in areas such as:
- Data: input/output on international keyboards, layouts, etc.
- Effects/results of opening data in multiple locales
- Locale specific settings: numbers dates, times, time zones, decimals, etc.
We can manage the entire process of logging I18Nbugs, fixing them and performing regression testing on the fixes.
Localizability
We can also help you create user-friendly UIs as part of our internationalization engineering services. As a first step, we test your product UI using an automated technique known as pseudo-localization to identify potential issues and ensure that the UI is ready for localization. We can provide advice on how to resolve all I18N defects found. We can manage the entire process of logging I18Nbugs, fixing them and performing regression testing on all fixes.
Robust ISO standards for quality systems and risk management
Merrill Brink International is committed to quality and risk management. We are certified to ISO 9001:2008, ISO 27001:2005, ISO 13485:2003; and registered to EN 15038:2006 and ISO 14971:2007. Together, these standards provide assurance that the most stringent process and quality standards for internationalization engineering are followed.
