flexword is starting off with three staff in the office, who work closely with the project managers in Europe and oversee translations in almost every language provided by a pool of 8,000 qualified translators and proofreaders around the world. The local conditions make Jacksonville the ideal launch pad for the US business: Werner Arnautović explains: "The region itself has tremendous economic strength and, with its major port, it is home to countless large European corporations - including some in our customer portfolio.
The company, which was established in Mannheim in 1992, is one of Germany's biggest providers. It has already handled projects for over 1,000 clients in a variety of sectors from automotive to pharmaceuticals and has been internationally active for many years. flexword operates strictly according to the native speaker principle. This is more restrictive than required by EN Standard 15038, of which the company was one of the early adopters. Consequently, all translations are undertaken by the pool of qualified translators and proofreaders around the globe. Werner Arnautović: "The new office gives us six more project management hours. This enables us to manage incoming and outgoing orders during off-peak hours and at night, which marks another milestone in our company's history."
The office will be increased to a staff of around 10 over the next two years.
