ATK Improves Productivity, Reduces Costs and Expedites Recruiting Process Using Stellent System to Manage Intranet and Internet Content

Stellent(TM), Inc. (Nasdaq: STEL), a global provider of content management solutions, announced today that Alliant Techsystems (ATK), a billion-dollar aerospace and defense company, is using Stellent(TM) Content Management to manage content on its intranet and public Internet site.

The company has reaped significant business benefits using the Stellent system. For example, ATK has reached a higher level of productivity, which enables the company to more quickly and efficiently communicate with key audiences. Stellent Content Management also allows ATK to publish more information on the Web without needing to increase the number of staff, and it has reduced the organization's costs associated with printing hard-copy policies and procedures. In addition, Stellent enables ATK to expedite its recruiting process, as people can now respond to job openings via the Web rather than sending resumes to ATK by email.

"Stellent Content Management has undoubtedly been a high-value investment for ATK," said Duane McAllister, Webmaster for ATK. "We did not need to purchase additional desktop software to implement the system, and it is so intuitive that IT groups throughout the company were shocked at how quickly employees learned how to use the system with minimal help. ATK now has better control of its content, and we are able to more efficiently keep information on our Web sites up-to-date. Additionally, the system's scalability enables us to easily roll out the solution to manage more content across our organization."

Stellent Content Management supports ATK's intranet, and staff members also use the system to publish news releases and job openings on the company's public Web site. Employees use a Web browser to contribute content into the Stellent Content Server where it is saved in its native format, such as a word processing document, spreadsheet or graphic file, enabling easy updates. Once submitted, content is converted from its native format to a variety of Web formats and published to ATK's intranet or the appropriate section of its public Web site.

"ATK's Stellent Content Management implementation is a prime example of how large companies are using the system to get control of the content that was once scattered across their organizations," said Vern Hanzlik, president and chief executive officer for Stellent. "The solution easily scales to meet the needs of multiple audiences and departments within an enterprise, and the substantial business benefits the Stellent system generates, such as improved productivity and reduced costs, make it the content management product-of-choice for leading companies in a variety of industries."

In the near future, ATK plans to deploy another instance of Stellent Content Management that will enable the company's IT department to consolidate all of its documents in one central location.
