Do you have to create content and publications that are getting more and more complex, but your budget and your resources are limited?
With the Content Lifecycle Suite this is no problem! It provides you with the optimal tools for the efficient planning, creation, management and distribution of the content – whether for newspapers, reference books or service and operating manuals.
From content to products
Unlike standard document management systems, the product set offered by Ovitas manages modular content, defined by using XML structures. The platform provides all the tools to manage back end content authoring, review and approval, publishing, updating, security, and version control.
The Content Lifecycle Suite allows you to
- reduce publication cycles by means of optimal planning and workflow
- reduce costs through content re-use
- publish in the media and language versions appropriate for your target group(s) – without the need for additional outlays
- eradicate the product documentation bottlenecks that occur during product releases.
Successor of the company’s highly successful sigmalink system, the Content Lifecycle Suite reflects more than ten years experience in content management.
Based on XML
It enables the straightforward creation and management of content, as well as mapping of the workflow and publication processes thanks to the international standard XML.
The system has proved its capabilities in such companies as Airbus and Lucent Technologies.
