EVENT: Free Online Event - Reuse: A Substantial Factor in
Determining ROI for Content Management
March 1, 2005 - 1:30pm EST
Sponsored by Data Conversion Laboratories
When developing a business case for content management there are many
factors used to determine return on investment. One of the most important
factors, content reuse, can provide an excellent return on investment and
can be used to help sell the need for content management to your
organization. Reusing content (write once, reuse content many times)
results in substantially lower costs of creation, maintenance and delivery
of content. And, if you translate your content, reuse can have an even
greater impact on lowering costs.
Join content management maven Ann Rockley to learn how content reuse can
be used to determine return on investment for content management.
Attendees will learn:
- Where reuse has an impact on return on investment
- How to identify your percentage of reuse
- How to calculate return on investment using reuse

solution, but not the "work" in between.
Reorganize and streamline the existing documentation
Identify gaps in the documentation and schedule for coverage
Interview analysts and developers to "fill in the blanks"
Design reports and research methods to find information in the library
Skill set needed:
Understanding and knowledge of business and systems process flows and
what documentation "should" be there
RUP process and software, Rational product desired
