Publishing Application goes Primetime

Over the last two years, the Five Star team has partnered with one of our clients to design, develop, and implement a global document publications portal. On Wednesday April 21st, a great milestone was reached – the portal was officially launched to a global audience!

This portal leverages XML technology and enables the on-the-fly creation and storage of customized standard operating regulations. By implementing this portal, our client will reap the following cost and time savings benefits.

1. The portal eliminates the need to print large volumes of paper-based materials that traditionally were distributed to users around the world. It also provides significant savings each year by eliminating the printing costs. Moreover, the portal supports their commitment to preserving the environment and sustainability.
2. The portal enables the creation and customization of streamlined manuals that address the specific requirements of each end-user. As a result, users are no longer burdened by the process of leafing through thousands of pages of documentation to find only the handful of pages that are applicable to them.
3. The portal positions our client for just-in-time updating and publishing of operating regulations. Previously, they were limited to publishing regulation updates twice a year due to the requirements of developing, designing, publishing, printing, and distributing printed materials.
4. The portal provides a distinct competitive advantage by providing a value-added service.

These are just a few of the many benefits our client expects to achieve through the publishing portal. Learn more about our custom technology and application development services.
