Advantages

Use of the Information Mapping method provides our clients many advantages over traditional writing techniques.  Our clients are able to realize bottom-line results by the use of our method.  It provides writers of information:

Better Upfront Analysis
Analysis is often the most crucial phase of documentation or report development - and the most inadequate. The method provides an explicit framework, which guarantees that analysis is complete and effective.

Simplified Information Retrieval
The Information Mapping method simplifies access and retrieval of information - streamlining initial training, review, and reference.

Easier Document Updating
Updating and maintaining reference materials is essential to ensure their continuing effectiveness. However, updating and revising is often costly and time consuming with conventionally written materials.

Because of the method's modular structure, discrete units of information can easily be deleted or replaced with minimal disruption to the rest of the document.

Improved Comprehension and Performance
The Information Mapping method improves comprehension and performance when applied to reference, instructional, or complex technical materials.
