About BBM
Our history
- 1999: Our partner Beijing BBM Translation Service Co., Ltd., was founded as a translation company in Beijing, China
- 2012: BBM was established in Auckland

- 2025: We added a client contact point in Brisbane for customers in Australia
- Main field: Medical devices have been the main field of our translation work for most of that time
Team and project management
- One project manager per project: a single project manager is responsible from scoping and team coordination through delivery and post-delivery revisions. You deal with one person.
- Bilingual communication: our project managers work in English and Chinese and discuss terminology, timing and corrections with you directly.
- Clear roles: translators, reviewers and typesetters report to the project manager, so every step has an owner.
How we check quality
- Terminology first. Before translation, we extract key terms and agree them with you.
- Two people per document. A translator and a separate reviewer work on every file.
- Technical checks. We check numbers, units, references, tables and cross-references against the source.
- Records. Glossaries, translation memories and delivery records are kept in our project system, in use since 2007, so later projects reuse approved wording.
- Feedback. Client corrections are added to the glossary and applied to the rest of the dossier.
