Achieving Documentation Objectives using Technical Publications and PLM
Title: Achieving Documentation Objectives using Technical Publications and PLM
Date: On-demand
Products must launch to generate revenue but even in unregulated industries those products must be shipped with documentation. Whether it is user manuals, service manuals, labeling, or parts catalogs, products cannot be shipped without documentation. Authoring and publishing technical publications becomes more difficult with increased demands to target customers to match specific product configurations or levels of user expertise and increasing numbers of languages. Toss in the changes to design and source material during product development, and it is easy to see how hard it is to meet objectives for Tech Pubs.
This webinar will discuss how to solve these problems through the unification of tech pub activities with the product development environment. By including documentation authors and illustrators and their tools and processes within the PLM environment, Tech Pubs gains direct access to all current product information, immediate notice of changes, and actively participate in product development processes that impact documentation. Using structured authoring of components and linking them to source data, illustrations, and translations, tech pubs can increase reuse, reduce translation costs, automate publishing processes, and generate product configuration specific documentation. All while improving accuracy and customer satisfaction, and meeting budget and schedule. Teamcenter solutions help intelligently integrated product information and documentation to help achieve your challenges.
