01
French your engineers do not have to fix
Quebec and federal projects need their documents in French, and the French has to say exactly what the English says. When every project goes to a new translator, the terms drift: “slab edge” becomes three different things across the drawings, the specification and the report, and your senior engineers end up correcting the same French terms on every project instead of designing, and they are tired of it. Or your own engineers translate the drawings themselves, because an agency would send back a table of text to retype. If that is you, start with the AI draft: your team reviews a first version in your terms instead of writing it from scratch.
A term your engineers approved once should never need correcting again.
02
What you get back
- Canadian French, in Quebec construction usage. A specification is a devis; a quote is a soumission.
- Your terms, every time. The term base built from your past translations is applied to every document, so a callout on the drawing matches the specification section word for word.
- Files ready to issue. AutoCAD drawings come back as DWG with the French written in place; text blocks are adjusted for the longer French, though a dense sheet may still need some manual layout. Specifications keep their NMS numbering and structure.
Your engineers review the French in minutes, and the terms that reach the client are the ones they approved.
