What we do

At Paperstorm we deal with all things documentation. This covers a lot of ground, so lets break it down into smaller chunks:

If you need help describing your documentation needs, check out what we need.

Companies

Different company types have different documentation needs, and even the same documents will look very different between a startup or enterprise or government office. 

We have worked in all those situations and bring that experience to you. 

Industries

Each industry has its own language, style, requirements, and templates. Our broad experience means there is a good chance we have worked in your industry before and can hit the ground running. 

We have worked in cybersecurity, networking, RTOS, education, business, government, training, telecom, retail, and more. Our team has a wide array of experience we can bring to your documentation needs.

Even if it is a new industry, our professionals are used to starting with a clean slate and learning everything from the ground up. 

In some cases this can even be a benefit as we learn as your users would and get an "in the weeds" view of things. 

Document types

Every type of document has its own audience, requirements, template, contributors, subject matter experts, stake holders, and more. 

There is a big difference between a user manual procedure and a software development team process. 

Tools

Our team is used to working with all sorts of documentation tools, not just Microsoft Office and Google Suite. If we haven't worked with it before, we will learn it quickly and hit the ground running.

If you will not be providing access to yours tools, we may need to purchase it and charge you accordingly. This will be part of our quote.

Document tasks

Documentation is a big field when you think about it. There are:

project experts who help establish documentation requirements and deadlines,

writers who interview experts and create content, 

editors who clean up and organize content, making it fit the template and company look and feel, 

testers who ensure documents meet the requirements, and 

documentation managers who ensure everything runs smoothly.

Paperstorm can fill these roles, no matter if you just need one or all of them.

Job size

The same as companies and projects, documents come in all shapes and sizes. 

If you are worried your job is too small or too large for us, chances are there is nothing to worry about. We can help you with a few pages, or take on a full suite of manuals or policies from scratch.

Contact us, and we will dig into your documentation situation so we can give you the information to make an informed decision.

Contact us at info@paperstorm.ca with your vitals to get the ball rolling.
