An ERP for knowledge as strategic capital
An ERP for knowledge as strategic capital - Enterprise Knowledge Reegineering, EKR Srl "
The main scope is the creation of environments for complex documents automated generation to be published on paper and web.
The individual specialties range from analysis of better suited data structures for a business process, through the creation of "friendly" user interfaces for data collection with Microsoft InfoPath technology or Adobe Flex, to solutions for mapping between hybrid data sources, until the use with and industrial approach of traditional DTP products (particularly Adobe InDesign and Adobe FrameMaker).
We efficiently treat:
- what is generally managed with Word and / or Excel
- information that are often assembled in a not very efficient way with unstructured graphic applications (InDesign, Xpress, PowerPoint, FrameMaker unstructured, Ventura)
- those types of information that change "slowly" over time (such as the characteristics of a product)
- what often would be "too complex" to be managed inside a conventional database (such as a user manual or a extended document)
In any specific need EKR responds with customized projects, relying to some tested Tools to be combined in order to respond fully to the needs of the customer.
Our working areas are:
- Budgets and financial reports connected to ERP (financial notes, attachments, reports for institutions);
- manuals and complex data sheets in multilingual/multiple languages
- marketing products combined with ERP (product catalogs, price lists, product information);
- documentation on software training tools;
- organizational or research dashboards and Business Intelligence;
- automatic multilingual for each type of document;
- Web sites synchronized with paper (from a single insertion you get the site and paper product);
- User Interfaces localization;
A strong point: multilingual - multi language management
Our approach to multilingual document management gets these results:
- 70% reduction in translation and localization costs
- Communication consistency over time (the same concept will always be expressed with the same words and translated the same way)
- Strong reduction in the production time for documents in other languages following the first (done the English, other n-languages can be managed in a few minutes)
