Technical documentation Benefit from our know-how

Countless pieces of information are prepared and communicated every day in companies for internal and external use. The latest information management tools are increasingly used. However, content management systems and Wikis can only manage information efficiently if the information modules follow certain rules. XML in combination with a DTD provides structuring rules. That is only the technical aspect of standardised structures, however.

The requirements for the creators of documentation especially in the area of technical product documentation are becoming increasingly complex. The latest information and editorial systems based on XML solutions and database-supported information management require special skills. There are also laws, standards and guidelines that must be observed.

We share our know-how in all areas of technical documentation and technical communication to you and your employees. Take advantage of our know-how by having our experienced employees train and advise you precisely on your tasks.

Needs analysis – finding and exploiting optimisation potential

One of our primary services is professional consulting on all important topics in the field of technical documentation. As well as the standard-compliant preparation of your documentation, this also includes the analysis of your internal and external optimisation needs as well as consultancy based on the results.

Optimising business processes

The growing variety of products, increasingly complex machines and systems plus ever shorter time-to-market cycles mean that the demands on technical documentation are also rising. Few companies are able to respond to the greater demands with investment in time and human resources. In most cases, however, ways can be found to streamline and accelerate the technical document creation process.

We help you in identifying corresponding optimisation potential and in developing a sustainable solution for your technical documentation that specifically reduces effort and eliminates potential sources of error.

Process optimisation methods

The most important approaches to the optimisation of documentation processes in companies include the introduction of an effective content management system such as ST4 and/or a content delivery server. The latter can provide information to users much faster than your in-house server that still has many other tasks to perform.

Based on our practical experience, we can assess which optimisation methods are best suited to your purposes. In addition to feasibility, we also keep an eye on economic efficiency.

Goals of the process optimisation

The focus of optimising your documentation processes is to make your technical documentation more effective and efficient in order to best meet the needs of your customers.


Ultimately, it is not just a matter of writing manuals as well as operating and assembly instructions in a comprehensible and clear manner. The content must also be easy to find and update at any time without much effort.
