Overview

CCAD maintains work routing documents, known as travelers, within the PageMaker® desktop publishing environment and, in the case of some files, in an HTML format. Over 20,000 work order documents exist in the system, and each of these documents typically undergoes some level of maintenance each year. Huge amounts of redundant data cause huge amounts of redundant editing and modification and, consequently, CCAD is typically weeks, if not months, behind schedule in traveler document development for newly inducted work programs.

The objective of this project was to build a normalized, database management system that houses the traveler data and provides a user-friendly editing capability. KBSI developed filters to extract the data from PageMaker and automatically populate the newly constructed database. KBSI also developed a conversion utility designed to generate HTML travelers directly from the integrated database. The results of this system included huge cost avoidance in traveler development, maintenance, and data delivery to supporting systems.
