Number 9 Solutions helps companies realize their vision for next generation content development, delivery, and sharing. We do the nuts and bolts -- information modeling, content architecture, CCMS planning, conversion and migration, authoring tool customizations, specialized integrations and transformations, and more. Our goal is to make systems seamless, easy to use, and easy to maintain -- allowing tech doc teams to focus on content, not tools.

We can help your organization move to DITA by providing services ranging from defining architecture, specializing DITA to fit your content model, converting legacy content through implementing a system to support your work flow.

With over 30 years experience in technical communication and experience with DITA since its inception, we can provide all the services you may require on your move to DITA and beyond.
