The purpose of this paper is to enhance understanding of the nature of large-scale translation projects and their systematic management. In a large-scale translation project involving multiple translators and revisers, project management needs to be systematic so as to produce a consistent and satisfactory translation output. Given the lack of findings on the processes and problems of managing translation projects, this paper aims to propose some practical ideas on the issue based on a translation project carried out by the alumni of the Korean-German department of the Graduate School of Interpretation and Translation (GSIT), Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS) in 2011. For practical reasons, the identified problems are laid out in three categories: ‘management of translators’, ‘standardizing terms and formats’, ‘quality control’.
