SOLUTIONS FOR MANUFACTURERS

Content DSI has extensive experience in helping companies implement content management solutions to allow them to reduce production costs and create new revenue opportunities. From digital asset management to content authoring tools, we can provide a unified system that works for your company. These solutions have enabled our clients to address important business challenges, such as:

Managing complex and/or a high volume of product information
Supporting Web-based product catalogs
Delivering consistent product information to distributors and e-marketplaces
Streamlining technical documentation production

Content DSI develops solutions for companies based on the practice of Enterprise Content Management (ECM). ECM has many applications in the manufacturing industry and involves the entire process from content creation to management to delivery. ECM can provide the ability to collect disparate content into a single source of information that can then support multiple output channels, including the Web, print/PDF, and CD/DVD.

Content DSI can help specify and integrate the many individual components of an ECM system, as illustrated in the diagram below, to best fit our clients' business needs and provide a unified portal to all of their content assets.

Our Focus on Information Management Systems

Product Information Manangement Systems

An ECM for product information typically uses a centralized repository that enables online searching, ordering, and integration with ERP and other back-end business systems. These systems can also facilitate the exchange of information among other business systems, and provide support for producing print product catalogs from a single resource.

Technical Documentation Systems

Managing massive amounts of technical content for producing and updating documentation can be a challenge for manufacturers. Multiple users and departments need to collaborate to create and update various versions of the documentation, and typically work with disparate sources of information.

Digital Asset Management Systems

Most companies have an array of digital assets that they have accumulated over time, such as logos, charts, photos, and even digital audio and video. Many companies also don't have the proper tools to handle these digital files in a systemized and user-friendly manner. With the ever increasing importance of the online business place and the rising implementation of digital print production, organizing your files into an efficient digital asset management system is crucial. An ECM for digital asset management can provide a central, organized repository for your digital files, enable indexing and quick retrieval, and support conversion for multiple output formats, such as generating thumbnails for Web display. With the utilization of appropriate digital asset management software, your company can efficiently create, edit and store your digital files in a way that best suits you.

Solutions from Content DSI can provide a unified portal to all of your product information, enabling more efficient collaboration among users and channel partners.

Our Focus on Information Management Systems

For all of our ECM solutions and related services, Content DSI works closely with our clients to gain a thorough understanding of business needs and then recommends, designs, and implements solutions that will satisfy these requirements and be extensible to accommodate future growth and initiatives.

Content DSI maintains partnerships with premier technology vendors to provide off-the-shelf software components that can be integrated to build ECM systems with robust functionality and clear upgrade paths. When off-the-shelf components are not available or do not meet your specific business needs, Content DSI will develop new components, customized to fit content management preferences.
