Case Study: Stanley Black & Decker reduces translation costs by 70% with Smartcat

How Stanley Black & Decker cut translation costs by 70% and improved efficiencies

Stanley Black & Decker, the global tool and industrial company, needed a more efficient way to translate learning and development materials and eCommerce content into multiple languages. Prior to working with Smartcat, their translation process was fragmented, costly, and slow, with inconsistent quality and no unified way to manage stakeholders, suppliers, or linguistic assets.

Using Smartcat’s enterprise language AI platform, including AI translation, collaborative TMS workflows, and automated project management, Stanley Black & Decker centralized translation operations and streamlined file handling, procurement, and quality control. Smartcat helped the company cut translation costs by 50–70%, reduce turnaround time by about two weeks, and translate content in days instead of weeks while maintaining consistent quality.
