Build Change reduced bottlenecks with a weatherproof translation workflow
Build Change is a global NGO that offers resilient housing solutions to homeowners in disaster-prone areas through their assistance platform, BCtap. They operate in 15 countries across Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region.
The Challenge
The non-profit needed to localize complex technical content to meet the varying financial and logistical needs of homeowners, builders, and local teams in the field. In addition to the language barriers, they were also looking for a solution that could simplify their current translation process, which was tedious and prone to user error.
The Solution
The team built a whole system for easier content distribution on Localazy. Using the iOS and Android integrations, they transitioned to the platform and applied machine translation to their workflows. This helped them to quickly generate translations that were later reviewed and refined by native speakers, minimizing errors on the technical side. Then they used Localazy CLI and CDN to distribute their localized message across their global network, making the updated content instantly accesible to their users worldwide in different languages.
The Result
With their new, well-documented localization process, Build Change has considerably decreased the time needed for translation and review in seven different languages. Quick MT kick-offs and easy onboarding for contributors have made scaling easier — the NGO can now confidently meet their users where they're at in their journey to resilient housing, whether that is Mozambique, Colombia, or the Philippines.
