Next Generation S1000D™ Publication Lifecycle Management System PITTSBURGH, PA - May 7, 2008 --[ASDWire]-- Inmedius, Inc. announces the release of S1000Dmanager V3.0, the next evolution in S1000D management. The system’s new platform facilitates the professional management of content, delivering the tools and information needed to efficiently manage the S1000D publication process. Manager’s technical publication lifecycle architecture adds a powerful library and centralized control center to the system’s already robust S1000D project setup and management support capabilities. The combination of a flexible library system, unique Dashboard approach, and integrated business intelligence provides complete command over information assets. Manager V3.0 distinguishes itself by a strong business process driven approach that is easy to use and integrates authoring through publishing. “Manager V3.0 represents fulfillment of Inmedius’ goal to deliver a seamless software experience across multiple documentation standards, including; S1000D, DITA, and ATA iSpec 2200, with a common platform that allows them to work together effortlessly,” explained Gary Schaffer, Inmedius President and CEO. “This next generation of S1000Dmanager adds significant new capabilities that put it far ahead of any other offering currently available.” Robust new functionality in the S1000Dmanager V3.0 release includes a library system where users access and view information organized by Standard Numbering System (SNS). S1000D projects are managed from within the document library where multiple users, with security access, can edit project information. Another new feature is managing Data Module Requirements Lists (DMRL) as separate XML documents that may be checked out, issued, approved, and that have their own workflow. With quantitative metrics, the new, centralized Dashboard provides complete transparency and a visual representation of the S1000D technical documentation process. Publication managers are able to monitor organizational efficiency, identify problem or choke points in the process, and adjust resources as necessary to ensure project deliveries are on time and within budget. “Manager V3.0 ensures a complete business process that allows the inclusion of multiple authors, illustrators, reviewers, OEMs, and end users in the process of creating superior technical document,” stated Sean Rushing, Director of S1000D Products and Services, Inmedius. “The system enforces a repeatable, consistent standard operating process that rationalizes the very complex technical publication process.” A comprehensive management system, Inmedius S1000Dmanager offers extensive features that provide a framework for controlling the development of technical data utilizing S1000D publishing concepts.
