Case Study: a leading Japanese automotive manufacturer achieves multilingual parts ordering with Assima Multilingual Suite

Leading Japanese Automotive Manufacturer translates parts ordering into 20 languages with Assima

The European branch of a leading Japanese automotive manufacturer faced the challenge of translating its New Parts Application into 20 local languages for its retailers. The prospect of building, hosting, and maintaining 20 separate versions of the system was cost-prohibitive. They turned to Assima and its Multilingual Suite to find a more efficient solution.

Assima's solution created a translation layer that extracted text from the application's GUI into editable files, which were then translated. This eliminated the need for multiple systems, allowing the company to maintain only a single application and set of source code. Assima's solution significantly reduced development, hosting, and maintenance costs, enabled efficient centralized updates, and supported 120,000 daily orders from 8,500 retailers in their native languages.
