SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Acrolinx
today announced that its content-optimization platform has been
added to SDL's Navy Subscription License Agreement (NESL). The
expanded agreement makes it easier for the U.S. Navy and supporting
contractors to deploy Acrolinx technology in their publishing
process, which provides functionality to measurably improve the
clarity, readability, consistency and quality of printed and
digital technical documentation. The possible benefits for the Navy
include improving operational efficiencies, increasing operator and
technician safety and reducing mean time to repair.
From sophisticated submarines to advanced aircraft carriers, the
U.S. Navy and its contractors produce millions of pages of
technical content to support the largest battle fleet in the world.
Through implementation of the SDL Contenta Publishing Suite content
delivery solution, the NESL program reduces the total cost of
ownership for technical data creation, management and distribution
services in support of the US Naval surface and underwater fleets.
By leveraging one of the world's most advanced linguistic analytics
technologies, Acrolinx software can "read" and analyze this highly
technical content to ensure consistency with the terminology and
style defined by the U.S. Navy. Acrolinx software also "scores"
every piece of technical content, providing a measurable standard
to evaluate content quality and readability.
"We're excited to be included with SDL in support of the U.S.
Navy," said Acrolinx Chairman and CEO, Andrew Bredenkamp. "Using Acrolinx will allow
the Navy to more efficiently create large volumes of high-quality
technical communications."
The SDL NESL agreement is part of a broader Rationalization,
Reduction and Centralization Strategy developed by the U.S. Navy.
This agreement delivers the technology that is at the heart of the
Navy's Standard NAVSEA Integrated Publishing Process (SNIPP), which
is designed to create common and repeatable processes, standardized
applications and data repositories, as well as data integration
across authoritative data sources.
"Acrolinx delivers tangible quality improvements and provides
objective, quantified reports," said Lou
Iuppa, SDL VP of Strategic Business Development. "Access
through NESL provides Navy programs with an easier way to
seamlessly integrate Acrolinx into their continuous improvement
strategies – helping to drive program lifecycle costs down. The
measured results provide instant ROI justification"
Acrolinx and SDL are proud to demonstrate their combined
solutions at the 2015 S1000D User Forum in San Diego from September 21-24 and through a series of online
webinars starting Wednesday, September 30,
2015 at 1:00 p.m. EDT. To find

Navy to access interactive technical content delivery systems,
