Guidant CPI, a manufacturer of medical devices, is significantly reducing its cost of manufacturing documentation while increasing the quality of information delivered to the assembly line by authoring in XML. Assembly instructions are delivered electronically via an intranet, which ensures that the assembly line is using current information. The intranet also allows electronic feedback from the line to the information authors, allowing continuous improvement. XML is a non-proprietary format with features which allow Guidant to easily and accurately reuse text objects and provide a dynamic view of information to the user.
