User Documentation

From concise “Quick Start Guides” to extensive “User Manuals”,quality user documentation is critical for the success of any product. It is an extension of your company’s brand. Poorly written or insufficient documentation can be a negative reflection on the image of your company and result in increased support calls.

Making user documentation accurate and complete is a basic requirement. The trick is in making the user documentation useful i.e. easy to follow, intuitive and appealing. We are experts at communications. We understand what users look for in good user documentation. Different audiences need different levels of information, perhaps in different formats. Beginning with an audience analysis, we provide the appropriate information in a format that a specific class of users will find appealing and useful.

Process Documentation

We can document your processes including Quality processes (ISO 9000, CMM, Six Sigma), Training processes (ISO 10015), Information Security processes (ISO 17799, BS7799) and Documentation processes (ISO 18019 & 15910).

We not only have documentation experience but also process implementation experience in the above processes. Some of our core members are qualified auditors/ lead auditors in some of these processes.

Process documentation produced by us will to not only help you get (or maintain) an international process standard but also help you derive real benefit from it in terms of quality improvement and productivity gains.

Our process documents are process owner centric and hence very little is required to train them in these processes. We even make process tutorials for your process training activities. We make ample use of illustrations and process maps using UML or other pictorial representations.

Technical Illustrations
