Overview
Single source content management solutions enable a number of authors and editors to manage a single source of content which can be published and distributed using a range of different output formats (e.g. print, web and mobile) and channels.Instead of managing content at a document level, content is broken down into common components or fragments and is managed at a granular level. These components are organised within a structure that is logical for editing and retrieval purposes.
Publications are created by assembling and re-structuring a selection of components which are manipulated and formatted for the desired output format and distribution channel.
Benefits
- Extend reach across new channels
- Reduce authoring, publishing and distribution costs
- Reduce turnaround times
- Improve accuracy and content quality
- Improve customer service through personalisation and improved access to information
Our Approach
Central to our approach is focussed design and analysis phase in which a range of processes, tools and methodologies are used to analyse content and publishing requirements. This phase results in the creation of detailed specifications for the solution configuration including a data model, content structure and templates for content input and publishing output
A solution based on our own and/or third party software components is configured and customised according to specifications and then deployed. End-user training and optional customised training materials are provided following deployment.
A knowledge transfer process in which in house technical staff are trained to fulfil a full range or selection of maintenance functions is also available.
