Additional context

Creating a controlled publishing workflow for searchable XML and HTML content across digital platforms.

01 / Challenge

The problem in front of us.

The client needed to convert legacy data into universal formats such as XML and HTML so it could render on other digital platforms. The converted data had to comply with standards, be easily searchable, support master-list segregation, edit and update existing data with complete edit logs, maintain child and parent relationships, support multiple quality checkpoints, handle 6 workflow statuses, provide version control, and show authorized documents on dashboards.

02 / Approach

How we set the work up.

iBoss designed a content-management solution around descriptive workflow management, quality checkpoints, tested and validated content, authorized search, master-list segregation, and full version control.

03 / Solution

What we built.

The platform manages different content life cycles, saves tested and validated content to the database, makes authorized content searchable, divides data into system-defined master lists, and maintains each document version with a full event log to identify approvers and editors.

04 / Outcome

What it has held up to.

The client can manage a huge amount of content with ease. Content is generated into XML and HTML formats that can be formatted and displayed on digital platforms of choice, while quality controls help the client work more efficiently and effectively.
