We strongly believe that good member companies are key to providing quality services. Also, we realize how much we depend on one another in terms of reputation, and how much trust do we invest in our relationship. A single misstep of a single member can cost the whole alliance an important customer or a big project. This explains relatively rigorous requirements that the company needs to meet to become an LLA member.
Independent, owner-operated SLV or small MLV (motivation at ground level)
One or more of company’s core languages are unique within LLA
Stable reputation as a leading localization & translation provider for its core language(s) or region
5+ years on the market and/or company’s management has at least a 5-year history of localization & translation experience
Local office(s) with a permanent core team (PMs, Editors, etc.) of a reasonable size & sufficient scalability (depends on the language)
Experience with projects from leading software publishers & global manufacturers
Existing positive experience (1+ years) of cooperation with LLA members, and a recommendation from at least one LLA member
