Notes

  • Process to produce manual can take 16-100 business days.
  • Contact CISDE if issues arise or modifications are needed.
Customer should provide CISDE with the following details within 48 hours of request:

  • Content to be included
  • Targeted audience
  • Who the subject matter experts are
  • Who CISDE should contact if there are questions
  • Names of all who will need to review before finalizing
  • Formatting requirements (color scheme, logos, etc.)
  • Where the document will live
Things that can slow the process:

  • Delays in providing CISDE team with content or changes in the application and/or resources
  • Changes that occur to the process/content during development
  • Delays in the review cycles
  • A request involving a large amount of content
  • A request involving extremely complex content
  • Business application errors
