By Mike Unwalla
TechScribe is helping a leading-edge software company to provide clear
guidance for its customers.
"Scitech develops the market-leading EnABLE™ statistical software that
speeds up the planning of oil and gas field developments and chooses
optimum plans such as the best place and time to drill wells," says Neil
Dunlop, Director of software and consulting house Scitech
(www.enscitech.com). "It's used around the globe by many major oil
companies. We invited Mike Unwalla to our European User Group meeting, to explain how he's improving the current user manual." "My role is to collect all the information and opinions that the Scitech team provides, and then resolve any conflicts. Scitech people then review this, and ensure that the product really does what the user guide says. They also clarify any remaining conflicts. It's the hardest project I've ever worked on!" says Mike.
Ceri Lloyd, Coordinator of the User Group, says, "Mike was given the
task of producing clear documentation. His questions forced us into
clarifying matters for our new users. This is just what we wanted."
"It was a great privilege to be invited to the User Group meeting.
Learning directly from users about the problems that they face when
using software and documentation will ensure that users get the type of
documentation that they need," says Mike.
