TIA’s methodology is the cornerstone of their approach to create quality materials. This methodology is simply:

TIA’s primary expertise is information requirements analysis leading to development of effective information materials. TIA staff members are not just writers and editors; they are trained technical communication professionals. For every project, TIA efficiently identifies the purpose and goals of the project; develops profiles of the users of the information; identifies other factors impacting the materials and their use; identifies the specific information requirements; and then designs and develops the information materials.

The methodology includes such elements as:

Analyzing the scope of the project to ensure factual information is used rather than assumptions;

Identifying the skills, experience, attitudes, and needs of the information users;

Understanding the physical and psychological factors affecting the users;

Identifying the information necessary to achieve the project goals;

Defining the specific materials to be created and the purpose those materials serve; and

Developing the specifications for the visual appearance and style used for the materials.

These combined elements ensure that all materials for the project are of high quality, that they meet the intended purpose, and that they are completed and delivered on time.
