Writing content
Content written throughout the design and life of a product is a valuable source of information for your employees and customers.
Technical writing is a discipline in itself. You have to adapt to the reader’s level of understanding and needs.
Technical writing covers the entire life of the product and is based on existing content, targeted information gathering or analysis of design documents.
Our technical writers are native speakers of French and English. They have solid technical and linguistic training.
This allows them to integrate seamlessly into your teams to impact them as little as possible.
They write in a clear, concise and targeted manner. This is done while respecting a rigorous approach to content reuse and compliance with norms and standards.
If there’s one skill to remember about a professional technical writer, it’s that they can save up to 80% on the time it takes to write targeted content.
This content can then be used in sales communication, training, internal assembly instructions, user documents and after-sales service.
Translations
Our translation services are backed by the expertise of experienced translators.
The translated language is the native language of the translator.
He has mastered the vocabulary and turns of phrase that the content requires.
In collaboration with our clients, glossaries are established to ensure that terminologies are respected.
These translations are maintained and continue through the versions. A second version builds on the experience gained from the first. Our clients see their costs reduced drastically by using translation memories that can be built on the basis of existing translated documents.
Publications
We follow and sometimes anticipate our clients’ requests. Often, all or part of a content needs to be published in a printable PDF document as well as in a web format.
It’s a huge time saver to be able to use the same content source in different publications without having to copy or adapt it manually.
To do this, different options are possible. Either by creating content in adapted and structured formats, which requires upstream work, or by implementing tools that can extract information and format it in different ways.
Our approach is to analyze the content and the final media in their entirety. Then, we determine the most complex medium, such as a high quality print with careful layout, to define formats and adapted tools.
When the work is done upstream and the content is structured in a flexible and adapted format, publication becomes easy. Nevertheless, where computer tools are imperative, the eye of a knowledgeable professional remains indispensable.
Our clients’ image is at stake.
Documentation engineering
Document engineering is a computer science discipline that studies content systems in all their forms and for all types of media. Document engineering deals with the principles, tools and processes that improve the ability to create, manage and maintain documents within the enterprise.
We offer this service to improve the flow of content between departments, from R&D to Regulatory Affairs to Industrialization.
Our experts are senior developers and highly qualified in the fields of databases (DBA Oracle), object-oriented development and specialized application design (various models).
This expertise coupled with years of involvement in various departments of the industry (watchmaking, machine tools, procurement) allows us to provide turnkey solutions or improve existing processes.
This starts with the input tools and their use up to the implementation of low-level systems (servers, virtualization, high availability).
3D & illustrations
The design of a product is intimately linked to CAD tools. These assemblies (Solidworks, Inventor) are essential for the realization of the components, the search for subcontractors.
They are also a cutting-edge asset for explaining and training.
When used properly, this content allows the creation of visuals for sales through high quality renderings. It should also be used to explain how to assemble, commission, use/maintain a product and finally identify exactly which component needs to be replaced.
Assembly photographs and operating videos are advantageously replaced by detailed exploded views and realistic 3D animations that are perfectly calibrated and targeted.
Virtual & augmented reality
Virtual reality is slowly making its way to industrial uses for the general public. Until recently these costly technologies were only reserved for very specific niches (aeronautics, naval, petrochemical).
Since about 2015, it has become possible to use these technologies without expensive equipment and within the framework of presentations, training and after-sales service.
Based on the complex assemblies of our customers, we have developed applications that can be run on a smartphone.
Not only to choose the look of a sedan, but also to interact with the product.
- Present your products in a flattering environment, anywhere in the world
- Augmented reality: your product on the customer’s premises, directly visible
- Faster comprehension, no need to imagine, it is almost concrete
- Advanced and very affordable technologies, a helmet for a few hundred francs
- Extensive possibilities, procedures, handling, training
