All HCI writers used in Managed Writing projects are top professionals with technical experience relevant to your requirements. HCI Writer Placement allows us to place our technical writers at your premises on contract. Writers complete the writing project under your direction, and HCI involvement is limited to placing the writer, and any other tasks as negotiated. Fees for writers on contract vary with their experience. Contract writer placement involves no ongoing management commitment by HCI and so costs are less than for HCI Managed Writing.
Document maintenance is also available on an as-required or retainer basis.
We can also useability test your competitors' products, and provide feedback on their good and bad points. A user survey carried out by an independent party gives valuable feedback on what your users think about you and your competitors' products. It also gives essential input into the user interface and documentation design process. Starting with a user survey and the results of formative useability testing, we can draw up a complete user interface standard for a new product including a user glossary and layout rules. Effective interface design can reduce documentation costs considerably, as well as enhancing sales and boosting product acceptance.
