New bundle reduces acquisition costs and simplifies purchasing experience

SDL (LSE: SDL) today announced a new bundled offering of advanced content management and publishing solutions for structured content. The new SDL Contenta Publishing Suite drives down acquisition costs for SDL customers and makes the buying process as simple as possible.

With this offering, SDL has found a way to cater to its customers in the highly-regulated aerospace and defense market, demonstrating the company’s commitment to providing the ultimate experience to all customers across industries.

HEBCO, a provider of superior, state-of-the-art engineering and technical services for military and commercial customers, is an avid user and buyer of SDL electronic publishing tools to support the production of technical data for several advanced weapon systems. “There is a lot of industry pressure to drive down acquisition costs,” stated Jack Litherland, PMP at HEBCO, Inc. “SDL consistently provides superior S1000D products and this new suite offering makes it significantly easier and more cost-effective to purchase their solutions. We have always appreciated the functionality of SDL S1000D products and are very happy to see the company providing even better ways to manage costs.”
