Dr. JoAnn Hackos, President of Comtech Services, discusses how best to approach a DITA implementation. Her process begins with content restructuring, including minimalism, before any change in technology. She is most influential is helping senior management understand the business benefits of moving to an XML-based standard and outlines four levels of cost savings that organization may achieve with a DITA implementation. http://www.comtech-serv.com
