dc.description.abstractENGLISH : This article examines the systematic management of terminological information in South Africa through the use of terminology management systems. It argues for a structured approach to terminology management across different contexts, namely at macro, meso, and micro level. The focus is specifically on terminology management within the commercial context, where it can enhance productivity within an organisation, ensure effective communication, and improve return on investment. The importance of user-oriented terminological products is emphasised, with specific attention given to the profile of the target user. Various types of software for terminology management, namely standalone, internet-based, and mobile applications, are discussed. This discussion also includes the knowledge-based approach to terminology. The article proposes a practical terminology workflow diagram suited to the multilingual South African context. It highlights the necessity of further research, institutional support, and user involvement to establish a sustainable terminology infrastructure in South Africa. AFRIKAANS : Hierdie artikel ondersoek die sistematiese bestuur van terminologiese inligting in Suid-Afrika deur middel van terminologiebestuursisteme. Daar word argumenteer vir 'n gestruk-tureerde benadering tot terminologiebestuur binne verskillende kontekste, naamlik op makro-, meso- en mikrovlak. Daar word spesifiek gefokus op terminologiebestuur binne die kommersiële konteks wat binne 'n organisasie produktiwiteit kan verhoog, doeltreffende kommunikasie kan verseker en opbrengs op belegging kan verbeter. Die belang van gebruikersgeoriënteerde terminologieprodukte word beklemtoon waar daar spesifiek aandag aan die profiel van die teikengebruiker gegee word. Verskeie tipes sagteware vir terminologiebestuur, d.i. losstaande, internetgebaseerde en mobiele toepassings, word bespreek. Hierdie bespreking sluit ook die kennisgebaseerde benadering tot terminologie in. Die artikel stel 'n praktiese terminologiewerkvloeidiagram voor wat geskik is vir die veeltalige Suid-Afrikaanse konteks. Dit wys op die noodsaaklikheid van verdere navorsing, institusionele ondersteuning en gebruikersbetrokkenheid om 'n volhoubare terminologie-infrastruktuur in Suid-Afrika te vestig.
