SDL Partnership with Fuji Xerox Marks Strategic Milestone in Global Expansion

Fuji Xerox will offer SDL’s Contenta Publishing Suite for Post-Sales Support of Complex Assets

SDL, part of RWS Holdings plc, announces a strategic partnership with Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd. to offer SDL Contenta Publishing Suite to manufacturers and aerospace and defense organizations in Japan, with a future plan to expand into other Asia-Pacific countries/regions. This marks a significant milestone in SDL’s global expansion strategy for technical content creation, management and publishing.

Organizations involved in manufacturing and aerospace and defense need to create, manage and publish technical documentation in a secure and functional manner. Technical documents for these industries are highly complex, and often include hundreds of thousands of instructions and graphics to support the operations, maintenance and inspection of complex assets. The combination of SDL and Fuji Xerox will help these organizations to consolidate, standardize, and adopt proven best practices – based on standards including the ASD S1000D® – to achieve substantial efficiencies across their content supply chain.
