Translation memory as a cost reducer Hopefully you already know what a translation memory (TM) is. If not, find out as quickly as possible. We often notice that companies have several TMs, for example separated by department or company within the group. The company often works with more than one translation agency and each agency then uses its own translation memory. However, you can only achieve maximum savings and consistency with a single, centrally managed TM. If you work with multiple agencies, internal or external translators, you should ensure that they provide the respective TM regularly so that your central TM can be updated.
