Description
Experience Level: Expert
Estimated project duration: 1 - 6 months
Kind of writing: Technology
Industry: Internet/Software
Topic: back office software for public transport
Tone: Formal/Professional
Outline & Structure: We design complex back office software for public transport. We are looking for an experienced technical author based in the UK to update our documentation for a complex software system. We would pay for the author to visit our offices in Wiltshire and spend a day with one of our application specialists being shown the software. We will also make a video and audio recording of the demonstrations. We will provide the current documents in Word format. Finally, we will also provide access via a web browser to a test system. Beyond the initial visit, most of the work can be carried out remotely, although an occasional visit to our offices may be helpful.
We are looking for an initial 4 week commitment, starting as soon as possible. If successful, we may well extend the contract to cover more of our software.
Extra notes: Can bidders please give previous experience of writing technical manuals, particularly for software, and submit a short sample of some technical writing as part of their submission. We would also like to take up references.
