As testament to the quality of its services, IDEST successfully manages major contracts with the following key characteristics:

1. a high number of languages (up to 24 simultaneously);
2. a high number of files for translation (up to 100 per day);
3. a high number of reference files;
4. a high number of contributors (up to 50 people on one project: project managers, translators, revisers, editors);
5. large volumes (up to 1,500 pages per month);
6. deadlines that are often very tight (e.g. 24 hrs).

For example, for over ten years IDEST has translated all the sessions of the European Parliament from all languages into French. IDEST translates trademark and model descriptions for the European Union Intellectual Property Office (Alicante) and for a similar organisation at global scale (Geneva).

Our quality control system is founded on the ISO-9001:2015 (formerly ISO-9001:2008) and ISO-17100:2015 (formerly EN-15038:2006) standards.
The ISO-9001 standard focuses on quality management and on customer satisfaction. IDEST has been certified since 2011 and is subject to an external audit every six months. Our quality management system entails the following steps:

1. adherence to our quality manifesto;
2. identification of key players and procedures at all stages;
3. daily monitoring of quality issues by the quality manager;
4. identification, management and elimination of non-conformities;
5. continuous improvement by implementing corrective and preventive actions (virtuous circle);
6. continuously updating all documentation.
