SAN MATEO, Calif.-By leveraging a Content Management System (CMS) to streamline internal product documentation processes, manufacturers can handle increasing product volumes, get products to market faster, and manage content quality and consistency on a global scale. Chip Gettinger, vice president, services and support for Astoria Software will co-host a Webinar with Mary Laplante, vice president for analyst and consulting firm, The Gilbane Group, to offer manufacturers practical advice for accelerating executive buy-in on a CMS project that will ultimately have a direct impact on an organization’s bottom line.


The Webinar titled, Where Do We Go from Here? A Roadmap to CMS Success will be held on Thursday March 8, 2007 from 2 3 p.m. Eastern Time. Please visit http://www.bulldogsolutions.net/ASTSW/AST03082007/index.aspx?bdls=8929 to register for the event.

  • How to get executive buy-in and capture ROI metrics
  • Strategy considerations around a CMS
  • Best practices on organizational change
