Lionbridge onDemand turns services such as translation, interpretation, transcription, content creation, video development, mobile app testing and more into items that can be bought through an ecatalog via a procure to pay system.
These services have been "productized" by standardizing the options and making pricing instant. Now services can be managed like catalog items and spend under management can be increased via procure to pay systems. The business stakeholders like this approach since it gives them 24/7 access, faster turnaround times and lower prices.
Without this productization, most services continue to show low levels of spend under management, low visibility into total cost per output and rate card negotiations that often lead to the vendors adding more fees and taking longer to do work.
Lionbridge onDemand follows the pattern set by categories like office supplies, printing, and travel. Now is the time to apply it to even more categories.
Lionbridge is a $600MM globalization services provider that is a trusted partner to numerous Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft, Google, Rolls Royce, Philips and many more. Lionbridge has been ranked for two years in a row by Forbes as a Top 100 Most Trusted Public Company in America.
