Cordoba, Argentina – February 21, 2022 – SumaLatam, a woman-owned, multilingual content-related services provider in Latin America delivering translation and localization for the world, announced today its recent ISO 9001:2015 certification focused on quality management systems (QMS) and performance, in addition to ISO 17100:2015 certification for standards specific to a translation company. This is a significant benchmark for SumaLatam, further solidifying their reputation for high standards of consistency, quality, and continual improvement in order to meet and exceed expectations, and deliver customer-focused solutions.

Following an external audit and assessment by Argentina-based Instituto Argentino de Normalización y Certificación (IRAM), achieving ISO certification standardizes performance.

As a guidance standard, ISO 17100 identifies SumaLatam as a proven language services company whose processes meet applicable specifications for delivery of high-quality and professional translation services. Now certified on these International Quality System Standards, the company is better able to convey cultures, ideas, products, and services beyond languages.
