TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.

Documentation is fully integrated into the development process because we
develop everything in cross-functional teams. In our 2+ years of following
this type of development, we have not missed a deadline, AND have found that
the tech writers make the best leaders for the cross-functional teams.

At your organization, does the product development
process (or SDLC) clearly include documentation?
* Documentation is fully integrated into the process
* Documentation is in the process, tangentially
* Documentation is not addressed in the process
* Documentation is explicitly excluded
* We do not have a formal development process
* Other/none of the above
