Case Study: Belimo achieves global translation consistency with Acolad

Belimo streamlines translations across 80+ countries with Acolad

Belimo, a global leader in HVAC and smart building solutions, faced localization challenges due to its decentralized translation process. With over 60 scattered experts and multiple language service providers, the company struggled with inconsistent messaging and a lack of oversight on spending. Partnering with Acolad, Belimo sought to centralize its translation services to achieve global consistency.

Acolad implemented a centralized translation process for Belimo, consolidating all work through a team in Switzerland and streamlining vendors down to three key suppliers. This new approach incorporated automated in-country review and terminology management. The results included a consistent global brand voice, improved cost control, faster time-to-market, and enhanced quality, allowing Belimo's 'quality first' motto to resonate in every market.
