WASSER can help you define your documentation strategy. This includes creating document requirements and publications sets, reducing unnecessary rewriting, increasing efficient use of content, and enhancing the overall user experience. Our skilled instructional designers and information designers can analyze your content and the learning environment, and then develop a plan to capture metrics and make targeted recommendations, based on your business and learning objectives. You‘ll get a detailed understanding of where to focus your investments in training and documentation for maximum benefit.

Information Architecture

Clarity and simplicity in developing content can reap great rewards through enhancement of the user experience, clarification of company messaging, and reduction of your overall investment by minimizing false starts and rework. WASSER professionals use learning theory and information-mapping techniques to analyze, organize, and design documents that clearly present content and improve learning.

Single-Sourcing

By modularizing documentation or creating multiple outputs from a single source document, single-sourcing dovetails perfectly with content management, localization strategies, and cost-reduction initiatives. WASSER can help you set expectations within your organization and achieve maximum document-reuse potential through careful up-front planning.
