I work for an association that currently outsources all translation to a couple different translation agencies. Given that I’m a certified translator and have seen firsthand the many benefits of the different TMS, I made a recommendation to bring either SDL Trados or memoQ in-house.

I work for an association that currently outsources all translation to a couple different translation agencies. Given that I’m a certified translator and have seen firsthand the many benefits of the different TMS, I made a recommendation to bring either SDL Trados or memoQ in-house.

It seems that we are going to get memoQ to start managing all of our translation processes; however, no one here knows much about translation software, let alone the project management aspect of translation software. I’m trying to make my case to have upper management create a new position to manage it, given that the goal is to have the whole organization make use of it.

Does anyone have an idea how long it will take to:
1- Install the software in 2 environments (test and production)
2- PM training
3- Train people to actually use the software
4- Combine the current TMs (from the different translation agencies)

I just need a guestimate to prove that this project requires A LOT of time and attention in order to implement it well (because this was not in my job description )

Any suggestions?
