CCMS Consulting

CCMS Consulting & Implementation

Platform-independent CCMS consulting — from assessment and selection through to implementation, governance, and migration support.

Structured content management at enterprise scale

A Component Content Management System (CCMS) is the foundation of scalable, reusable, and governable technical documentation. We help organisations assess their readiness, select the right platform, and implement it in a way that delivers lasting value.

Business problems we solve

Content duplicated across teams with no single source of truth

Inconsistent terminology and formatting across product documentation

Manual, error-prone publishing processes consuming significant team time

No structured reuse strategy — every update requires multiple manual edits

Difficulty managing translations and localisation at scale

Legacy content in Word or FrameMaker that cannot be efficiently maintained

Service offerings

CCMS Assessment & Selection

We evaluate your current content environment, team capabilities, and business requirements to identify the right CCMS platform — whether that is Ixiasoft, Astoria, Vasont, SDL Tridion Docs, or another enterprise solution.

Implementation Planning

Detailed implementation roadmaps covering phased rollout, resource planning, risk management, integration requirements, and success criteria aligned to your programme timeline.

Taxonomy & Metadata Design

Structured taxonomy frameworks, metadata schemas, and classification systems that make content findable, reusable, and manageable at scale across your organisation.

Governance Frameworks

Content governance policies, authoring standards, review workflows, approval processes, and ownership models that keep your CCMS investment delivering value over time.

Content Workflow Design

End-to-end content lifecycle workflows — from authoring and review through to publishing and archiving — mapped to your team structure and toolchain.

Migration Support

Planning and execution support for migrating legacy content into your CCMS, including content analysis, mapping, transformation, validation, and quality assurance.
