Description

BSL presents the case of one of the largest global companies in the translation industry, located in Belgium. BSL's drop in sales, accompanied by an even greater decrease in profitability, in the context of sector's turnover growth, together with the apparent increase in the additional services involved in the translation process, leads the company to readdress the cost system and propose an activity-based approach. Although the system sheds more light on the company's situation, the strategy focused on "traditional translation" is presented as the starting point for a larger problem. This case is based on the case Bruxelles Services Linguistiques (BSL), C-772-E, from the same authors.
