1. Because You won't pay until you see results you can be proud of
Whenever you get your own people to produce documents, or hire outside contractors or consultants, your costs start from long before anyone puts pen to paper, and you pay for every hour anyone spends on the job. If the result isn’t what you really want, you still pay. Bad documentation can harm your business – you may even be paying people to do harm.

But, our policy is to make sure you don’t have to pay unless you are getting what you want.

How do we make sure of this?

Our service agreements ensure that you wont be charged until you are happy with results. We establish, with your help, the scope, standards of presentation, structure and timeframe. We produce sample documents for you to OK before proceeding.


2. Because we can, and will, see things from your customers' point of view

Your own people can sometimes be too close to the business to put themselves in the customer’s shoes.

For example, in marketing situations, maybe they are closer to the product’s features that to what the customers need.  Or with products or systems, they  know how things work, so can easily take for granted things the end user will have no idea about.

We have been customers, users, marketers, writers, business managers. We can often get a better grasp of where the reader is coming from.


3.

Because of our business knowledge

Our senior consultants and team leaders all have substantial experience in business analysis and business management.  Faced with a writing or documentation project, they are more likely to be able to see the “big picture” in terms of what has to be achieved and why.


4. Because of our documentation skills

Documentation is our core skill – our bread and butter. It is not a tedious task that we are doing because it has to be done but are not really interested. This is often what you find happens when you divert your own people from their normal work into writing documentation.

We have written many, many documents in many different styles to suit many requirements. We also make it our business to keep up to date with all the latest products, techniques and trends in the field of writing and documentation.


5. Because our huge library of templates will save you time and money.

We have built up a library of templates, styles, glossaries, standard clauses and phrases over many years of writing business documents. You can also benefit from modelling your material on proven designs that have been successful in delivering results in possibly similar situations to your own. The choice is yours, of course, but our library can save you time and money by using off-the-shelf solutions to common types of documentation needs.


6.

Because our engagement model will be more effective for you.

Our engagement model is that we work as your partners, and are always available to follow up, extend or write more whenever you may need it. With contractors, or even your own staff, you can never really rely on them being available to continue work in a few months or years time, and produce the same quality work in a consistent and seamless style.

We also able to quote jobs, over which we have a degree of management control, at fixed prices, and have a policy that you don’t pay until you are satisfied with the results.


7. Because of our technical and systems expertise .
If you need systems documentation, this is very important. Our senior systems documentation consultants all have extensive leadership experience at all stages of the software development lifecycle (SDLC).  They are proven hands-on project managers, each with over 15 years of experience in high-level business analysis. This in addition to being experts at technical authoring and content production and deployment. The fact is, that nothing less than this is required to be able to deliver high quality systems documentation for your organization.
