Subject: Press Release - Jaguar moves into the fast lane with Chrystal Sof tware
For immediate release - jaguar moves into the fast lane with chrystal software efficient CONTENT management enables car manufacturer to speed ahead Jaguar Cars Ltd announced today its implementation of Chrystal Software's XML (eXtensible Markup Language) content management suite, EclipseTM, in association with premier partner, CSW Online Ltd. CSW incorporated Chrystal's Eclipse technology into a complete solution for the production of Jaguar's dealer training guides. The software will enable Jaguar to accelerate the production of training guides for their dealer networks, rendering the process both more accurate and efficient and reducing costs by up to 50%. Jaguar's deployment of Eclipse confirms Chrystal's leadership in the XML content management field. Graham Lyall, programming manager at Jaguar, explained, "Each car we produce has specific and different characteristics that must be included in the training collateral. Some information is relevant only for the dealer training guides and some only for the instructor guides. Once drawn up, both sets of guides must then be translated into seven languages. This is a huge amount of information to collate accurately and quickly especially as the parameters constantly change. Ensuring the accuracy of these guides is fundamental to maintaining our excellent reputation in the market. In this respect, the Chrystal solution meets and exceeds our requirements." Jaguar had an aggressive road map for increasing the number of models available and was eager to update its system for production of its dealer training and accompanying instructor guides. Produced in seven different languages for distribution to international dealerships, this time-consuming and costly process will be revolutionised by the Chrystal solution. Chrystal's latest product Eclipse is a Java-based software solution which dynamically creates personalised assemblies of information from Chrystal's Astoria XML repository and delivers content-rich web pages tailored to each individual user. Frazer Robinson, Vice-President of European Operations for Chrystal Software, said, "Our Eclipse suite is a proven information management technology that outstrips current static web tools and fulfils Jaguar's business requirements of formulating web content efficiently and flexibly. Jaguar strives to attain excellence in each department and has therefore selected us to provide and enhance that quality through our high-performance software solutions."
