User documentation

Three objectives for user documentation strategies and solutions

1) Develop an ongoing template programme
Templates save time and money. For those who have a lot of user documentation, modular solutions for content and templates (for planning and content) can greatly reduce turnaround time. Dramatic reduction in localisation costs follow proper preparation.

2) Prevent budget blowouts and delays
The original source of a budget blowout is often at the project planning stage. Prerequisites to the completion of the user documentation not considered properly can and often do mean increased costs and delays.

3) Better integration with product and marketing strategies.
User documentation viewed as an integrated part of product and marketing strategies can result in dramatic efficiencies. Examples of this include instructions which are part
of the packaging, and instructions supplied electronically (reducing printing costs and forming the base of marketing collateral used elsewhere).
