ONGOING — EMBEDDED LEADERSHIP
THE PROBLEM

You need senior judgment. You don't need a full-time executive.

Vendors, volume, AI workflows and shifting priorities — but no single leader owning Spanish/LatAm quality. The result is rework, inconsistency, and quality decisions made in the wrong room. A Fractional Lead fills the gap without the cost and complexity of a senior hire.

What we support.

Every engagement is shaped to your operation. These are the areas we most often own.

Quality frameworks
Definitions of "good", rubrics, severity scales and sign-off gates.
Localization workflows
End-to-end process design across source, MT, review and publication.
Vendor review & governance
Scorecards, SLAs, escalation paths and honest assessment of partners.
Terminology & style
Glossaries, style guides, naming decisions — documented, not tribal.
Quality dashboards
What leadership sees monthly — the metrics that actually matter.
AI output evaluation
Structured evals for Spanish, human-in-the-loop design, drift monitoring.
Escalation & prioritization
Clear rules for what blocks release and what enters the backlog.
Governance standards
Documentation and oversight aligned with AI Act, GDPR and enterprise risk.
Monthly action plans
Decisions, not just meetings. Priorities set and reviewed every month.

What you get.

Not a consultant parachuting in. A senior leader embedded in your monthly rhythm — with decision-making, not just input.

  1. Initial diagnosis

    The first 30 days: map of your current operation, risks, vendors, standards, and fastest wins.

  2. Governance charter

    Who owns what, how decisions are made, how quality is measured — written and agreed.

  3. QA framework

    Rubrics, severity, sign-off gates and escalation paths adapted to your product and markets.

  4. Monthly dashboard

    One view, updated monthly: pass rate, rework, defect recurrence, vendor SLAs, cost leakage.

  5. Monthly summary & action plan

    A short executive brief with decisions required, trade-offs flagged, next-month priorities.

  6. Vendor scorecards

    Quarterly view of partner performance — honest, comparable, and useful in renewal conversations.

  7. Quarterly roadmap

    Where quality investments go next — aligned with product, market and AI roadmap.
BEST FOR TEAMS THAT
  • Do not need a full-time executive hire
  • Do need consistent expert guidance
  • Want to reduce rework and improve quality over time
  • Operate multilingually with AI or localization at scale
NOT THE RIGHT FIT IF
  • You want a one-off tactical project
  • There's no internal owner to execute decisions
  • Your organization has no real operation yet
  • You're not ready to commit to a quarter of work
