The Challenge

Navigating multilingual due diligence

The due diligence work conducted by FACT in all cases involves sensitive personal and company information, much of it in multiple languages. Thus, all cases must be researched by qualified humans.

FACT’s stellar growth created increased demand for translation of documents and professional interpreting during interviews. This demand could not always be met by the in-house team, resulting in delays.

The Solution

Integrating GAI SaaS for secure translations

To enable FACT’s analysts to instantly translate documents forming part of the due-diligence process, in a secure environment, the GAI SaaS translation platform introduced into the workflow.

To guarantee translation results are accurate, a training dataset was created that trains the translation engine specifically for FACT's requirements.

In order to avoid delays in the interview process, a pool of certified professional interpreters with expertise in legal and due-diligence case work was established that meet the exacting requirements of FACT.

The Results

Enhanced efficiency and client satisfaction

The implementation of the GAI secure translation platform and pool of professional linguists has empowered FACT to instantly translate and understand content, thus removing unnecessary delays that could adversely impact on their clients.

FACT has fortified its position, ensuring that client operations remain unaffected by linguistic obstacles, thus maintaining their high standard of service delivery.
