and Cisco Systems' Bruce Nevin, you'll learn more about the content
reviewing challenges facing organizations today and how industry leaders
like Cisco Systems are tackling them.

1. Reduce development time and cost by removing bottlenecks from the XML
content creation process using collaborative reviewing.

2. Comply with regulations by automatically preserving an audit trail of
reviewer comments and annotations across document drafts.

3. Improve clarity and effectiveness of team communication.

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
