My challenge is to come up with a time estimation (in writer hours) for a
certain writing project. Not being an expert in ERP, I would like to
request the help of more experienced members in this forum.
These are the (rough) parameters:
1. System: A full ERP implementation, meaning one that employs all the
components you'd expect in a "best of breed" ERP solution.
2. The system is still under development. Writers will need to work a lot
from specs/PPTs/demos and the like.
3. Deliverable scope: Not full-blown but also not minimal.
4. Deliverable format: online Help (HTML-based).
5. Authoring tools: Word, probably. Not single-source.
