Author Once. Publish Everywhere.

Deploy a production-ready DITA content management platform in 8–12 weeks — with multi-channel publishing built in.

The Challenge:
Your Documentation Is Trapped — And AI Can't Find It Either

Your documentation is stuck. Technical writers author in disconnected tools — FrameMaker, Word, proprietary XML editors — while every output channel requires manual reformatting. A single source change triggers hours of rework across PDF, web, and in-product help. Translation costs scale linearly because agencies receive full documents instead of changed components. And the emerging AI layer — LLMs, chatbots, AI search — cannot cite what it cannot parse. The result: delayed product launches, inflated support costs, and growing compliance risk.

Our Solution:
From Fragmented Docs to Governed Multi-Channel Publishing in 12 Weeks

AEM Guides Foundation embeds a full DITA-based CCMS inside your Adobe ecosystem — closing the last gap in your content supply chain. Author once, publish everywhere, govern at scale.

DITA Content Architecture

Structured topic modeling, taxonomy design, and reusable component templates for your content domain.

Multi-Channel Publishing

Automated output to PDF, AEM Sites, Edge Delivery Services, HTML5, JSON, and Knowledge Base from one source.

Governed Workflows

Review, approval, versioning, and role-based access — built for regulated and multi-team environments.

Pilot Content Migration

50–100 topics migrated to DITA, validated across three output channels to prove the model before scaling.

Translation-Ready Pipeline

Structured content reduces translation volume by 40–60% through component-level reuse and conditional publishing.

Author Enablement

Train-the-trainer program, operational runbook, and 30/90-day scale roadmap with hypercare support.

Business Impact:
Measurable Efficiency from the First Publishing Cycle

Structured content management delivers measurable returns from week one. Component reuse eliminates redundant work. Automated publishing removes manual reformatting. And AI-ready content opens new discovery and support channels.

Content republishing effort
50–70% reduction through component-level reuse
Translation cost per release
40–60% reduction via structured, delta-only translation
Time-to-publish across channels
Single-click multi-channel output vs. manual reformatting
AI readiness
Structured, metadata-rich content parseable by LLMs and chatbots
Compliance risk
Full version control, audit trails, and governed approval workflows

Ideal for:
Enterprises Managing High-Volume Technical Content Across Channels

AEM Guides Foundation is built for organizations where documentation accuracy, regulatory compliance, and multi-format delivery are non-negotiable.

Automotive

Vehicle manuals, service docs, in-car help — published to print, web, and AI companions from one DITA source.

Manufacturing & B2B

Product specs, installation guides, and safety documentation across languages and markets at scale.

Healthcare & Life Sciences

Regulated IFUs, SmPCs, and clinical docs with audit trails, version control, and MDR/FDA compliance.

Financial Services

Compliance manuals, product disclosures, and operational procedures with consistent cross-jurisdiction terminology.

Our Delivery Model:
Structured, Production-Ready in 8–12 Weeks

Four phases, fixed deliverables per phase, one clear outcome: a governed DITA authoring environment with multi-channel publishing live in production. Each phase builds on the previous — no big-bang migration, no open-ended consulting.

Week 1–2

Discovery & Architecture
Content audit, DITA modeling, output channel mapping, migration strategy.

Week 2–6

Platform Setup & Pilot
AEM Guides provisioning, templates, pilot migration, 3 output channels live.

Week 6–9

Workflow & Governance
Review workflows, versioning, translation pipeline, role-based access.

Week 9-12

Enablement & Operationalization
Train-the-trainer, publishing runbook, KPI baseline, scale roadmap.

What Is Adobe Experience Manager Guides?

Adobe Experience Manager Guides is an enterprise Component Content Management System (CCMS) built natively into AEM. It enables DITA-based structured authoring — content created once at the component level, then published automatically to PDF, AEM Sites, Edge Delivery Services, HTML5, JSON, and Knowledge Base formats.

AEM Guides manages content as reusable, versionable components with metadata, conditional publishing, and governed workflows. The 2025 release adds Workfront integration and GenAI-powered smart suggestions for content reuse and discovery.
