/OUR_HISTORY
2005
The company was founded under the name Spanish Back Office S.A.
2009
In a bid to expand and diversify, the company changed its name to Translation Back Office S.A. This strategic decision enabled us to engage with a wider audience and to offer translation services in multiple languages.
2011
Inauguration of our Peru office to improve coverage for clients located along the Pacific coast.
2017
The company began searching for the perfect location to establish
a European base of operations.
This year also saw Translation Back Office S.A. earn ISO 9001:2015 quality certification, underscoring our commitment to a robust
Quality Management System (QMS).
2018
February marked the inauguration of our Kyiv office. Shortly after, a similar search began for an ideal location to establish an office covering the Asian region, leading to the opening of the Ho Chi Minh City office in October.
2019
The company was awarded ISO 17100:2015 certification, which establishes requirements for all aspects of the translation process directly affecting quality and delivery, including resource management, pre-production, production and post-production.
2020
The company was certified under three more quality standards: ISO 18587:2017, which establishes requirements for the complete human post-editing process of machine translation outputs and the competencies of post-editors; ASTM F3130-18, which establishes minimum management, operational and development infrastructure requirements for delivering quality services; and CGSB 131.10:2017, which establishes process requirements for translation services.
2023
This year marked a strategic turning point for Translation Back Office S.A., reflecting the company’s growth, evolution, and commitment to providing innovative solutions (tboloc, tbolab, tbotalent, tbomedia and tboplay) worldwide.
Rebranded as tbo., the company is committed to consolidating its position as a trusted partner in the language services industry and to expanding its reach
into new markets.
In addition to all that, we finally made it to Mexico and opened a new office in Monterrey.
2024
The company unveiled tbolive, a state-of-the-art solution tailored to meeting the growing demand for high-quality interpretation services, and tbodev, our software development business unit that also offers ongoing talent services for the IT industry.
