What's inside

BluePrinting provides a flexible content modeling mechanism, which models both content requirements and processes.

This includes:

  • Separate management of content, layout, applications and visitor profiles
  • Shared assets across websites and channels
  • Localized assets for local markets, including reusable translations for sites with shared language requirements
  • Local content for local campaigns or market initiatives

During an implementation scan, you can match your specific business objectives with your BluePrint model. From this, you create a BluePrint model that reflects your organizations priorities and channel requirements.

You can identify what you want to control centrally (such as brand elements or corporate information) and what you want to adapt for local or channel-specific rollout (such as campaigns or special offers).
