Localization expertise,
on demand.

TMS dead ends. Vendor decisions. Program assessments. Switching costs. Workflow problems that are vexingly difficult to resolve.

I have spent three decades inside localization programs as a Japanese linguist, a TMS solutions architect, an LSP senior solutions architect, and a buyer-side senior technical program manager.

We live in the age of validation. Every claim comes with a benchmark, every decision gets A/B tested, and every vendor arrives armed with a case study proving they are the right choice. What the data rarely tells you is what it was selected to tell you. Localization buyers are drowning in evidence and starved for judgment.

That is the gap LocNavigator fills: neutral but opinionated assessments. Neutral because I do not sell tools, take referral fees, or answer to a vendor. Opinionated because after three decades, I will tell you plainly what I think you should do and why, not hand you a matrix and wish you luck.

I can help with a nudge in the right direction, a detailed migration plan, or working through a vendor decision you're stuck on. I review every submission personally.
