                With a strong background in the IT sector, it is not surprising     
                that leading technology companies trust Xinyitong to provide a     
                complete localization service.     
                We view Software and Hardware 
                Localization as the customization of an application for a 
                particular target market. Xinyitong provides the required 
                hardware and software expertise as well as the in-depth 
                knowledge of language, regulatory requirements, cultural nuances 
                and taboos, and linguistic connotations to make the translated 
                application as functional for the foreign user as it is for the 
                domestic user. Xinyitong' localization engineers routinely work 
                with software resource and online help localization projects on 
                Mac, Windows, NT, and Linux operating systems.

                under control 
                Software and Hardware localization 
                is a process requiring specific knowledge and excellent project 
                management. For each project, the Project Manager, along with 
                the engineers, draws up a detailed Project Plan specifying all 
                stages necessary for its smooth completion. 
                Additional project management 
                pre-project is required as the project manager works with 
                clients to assess project scope: 
               
              
                
                  
                    - Has a previous version been localized? If 
                      so, we need to access it.
                    
 - Will there be version updates? If so, a 
                      glossary should already exist or should be created.
                    
 - What is the end user profile?
                    
 - What level of change orders is anticipated? 
                      How will new strings be communicated mid-project?
                    
 - What is the bug database? Is the QA testing 
                      group in-house and has the project gone through 
                      internationalization testing so that it is localization 
                      ready?
                    
 - What is the test strategy for the localized 
                      product?
