The objectives of the metric analyses and REx features are of a technical and a general methodical nature. They were developed to improve professionalization and operationalization of technical information management in the sense of a “content intelligence”. This comprises:
- Technical developments:
- Implementations of REx features (export mechanisms for level 1) in popular CMS
- CMS internal and external analysis options (level 2) through reporting and monitoring features (dashboards, cockpits and more)
- Company-specific content management methodology:
- Analysis of the degree of reusability and the dependencies (static key figures)
- Support and optimization of reusability
- Examination of the connection between product development and information development (dynamic key figures)
- Scientific studies:
- Analysis of industry-specific usage of CM systems
- Analysis of CM methods that improve the degree of reusability
- Benchmarking of CM implementations and developments of best practice scenarios
