The Business Case for XML Authoring — An RFP Example

Abstract

The scenario Corel will focus on is the common issue of working to a tight deadline on a 'Response For Proposal/Information when information resides in multiple places and with multiple people.

Corel will demonstrate how our solutions offer:

Distributed XML Authoring

Collaborative XML Authoring

Embedded XML Authoring

Corel will demonstrate how our solutions are able to dissimentate an RFP by splitting it up, collecting partial responses from several contributors , then putting it all back together, ensuring all the time that the contributors work with one master copy, without the risk of duplicating or editing the wrong information, and ensuring that this revenue critical operation is performed to the highest standard. Corel also will demonstrate the very latest technology (XML editing in Outlook and a browser) as well as how our solutions work in a collaborative workflow to ensure today's businesses have the very best integrated solutions available.
