The Translation Management System Mosaic: Different Colors, Shapes and Sizes

Report by Yulia Akhulkova.

TMS: the name of the game

TMS stands for Translation Management System. However, there’s no exact standard within the translation and localization industry as to what comprises a TMS.

Some providers and users of these solutions are adamant that TMS is a system that has management functionality and does not necessarily have Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) features. But we call any such technology a Business Management System (BMS) since that’s what it does: it helps manage business operations.

Throughout this report, we will focus on examples of systems that actually do have CAT tool, management, and QA features those which are rightly referred to as TMS.
