TranslateNOW
Now you're Talking my Language — Connect Diverse Teams in Maximo
TranslateNOW is a Maximo enhancement developed by Aquitas Solutions to bridge language barriers in Maximo. It empowers teams operating in multilingual environments by providing simple in-platform translation of text into users’ native languages. This functionality enhances accessibility and operational efficiency, fostering better collaboration across diverse teams.
While current Maximo language packs provide some translation capabilities, this is limited to static data such as labels and menus. TranslateNOW provides a more comprehensive translation solution and extends this functionality to translate the data entered into any language-enabled field in the platform. This improvement ensures all employees can easily understand and take action on work orders or service requests.
"There are many unavoidable obstacles within maintenance environments, but language barriers are a solvable issue."
-Jeff Brown, CEO
