TechPubs’ unmatched industry expertise coupled with technology knowledge makes the company a natural choice for advanced training requirements
Longmont, CO, April 24, 2009 – SkyWest Airlines (NASDAQ: SKYW), the world’s largest independently-owned regional airline, has engaged aviation technical document management leader TechPubs to provide advanced training on its existing Arbortext Content Manager and Editor content management system. The training will allow SkyWest to optimize and enhance the functionality of the system that supports the authoring and publishing of the airlines’ operational procedures and regulations.
Commercial aviation professionals depend on technical publications information to ensure that key functions, including flight operations and maintenance, are as efficient and as compliant with regulatory requirements as possible. TechPubs’ FlightPubs and FlightComply solutions, built on PTC’s (NASDAQ: PMTC) leading Arbortext family of content management software, ensure that up-to-date information is fully available across the airline enterprise – anywhere, to anyone, in the precise digital formats required.
But such systems can be complex to develop, maintain, and use. TechPubs’ unique depth of experience in customizing Arbortext technology to the specific needs of aviation customers makes the company an ideal partner to provide advanced training in this area.
“SkyWest’s decision to allow TechPubs to deliver airline-focused Arbortext training reflects our unique expertise with Arbortext and other aviation content management deployments,” said David Williams, TechPubs’ President and CEO. “In this difficult economic environment, relying on external experts for assistance in this complex technical area just makes sense. We’re looking forward to working with SkyWest on this and future engagements as their requirements grow.”
