Documentation ‘Quick scan’

Would you like to know how well your technical and business documentation is performing?

The documentation quick scan sets out from a number of interviews and the analysis of your documentation. For the interviews, I have developed a structured questionnaire. For the documentation, I developed a handy tool that enables me to quickly give a quantitative score. The illustration shows some sample tables of the form I use for that purpose. The questionnaire can also be used to compare documents and to benchmark.

Just tell me how many stake holders I need to interview and how many documents I need to evaluate and I’ll quote you on the spot. An extensive report with my findings and tips for improvement is included in the offer. As an option I can hold a management presentation at your premises to further discuss the findings.
