I've just been assigned the task of developing a facility guide for a large
energy services corporation. My client has almost no existing
documentation and this is the first time I've created a document of this
type. Does anyone with this type of experience have some pointers/advice,
or better yet, examples they would be willing to share? Your
advice/examples will really help me meet a tight deadline and will be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
