NEW YORK– March 26, 2018 – Smartling, a translation technology innovator, today announced its European Customer Awards program winners. The awards presentation capped off the Smartling Global Ready annual conference March 22 in London, bringing together Smartling executives, customers, partners, and industry influencers.

Multinational business software vendor SAP was awarded the Collaboration Rockstar Award for the company’s extensive scope of localization efforts and its multi-faceted use of the Smartling platform, robust integration via four pre-built Smartling connectors and the company’s internally developed API.

TNT garnered the Quality Rockstar Award for its pioneering usage of the Dynamic Quality Evaluation Framework (DQF) integration in the Smartling platform to streamline translation content quality assessment. TNT uses the DQF integration today to support a growing number of projects and the TNT collaboration has contributed significantly to improving Smartling’s DQF solution enhancements.

InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) was presented with the Partnership Rockstar Award for its use of Smartling’s technology, which has allowed IHG to expand its booking engine internationally. IHG continues to be a true localization partner, leveraging Smartling expertise through strategic consulting and embracing Smartling as an extension of its internal team and translation technology vendor of choice.
