Document automation

Automatic document configurator

The automatic document configurator is designed to industrialize the production of technical content such as manuals, instruction handbooks, product sheets, operator guides, installation or maintenance documentation, and warranty documents. The goal is to automate document generation, reduce repetitive tasks and significantly shorten production timelines.

This solution is based on an intelligent system of dynamic document templates capable of automatically generating a complete document based on selected options such as product variants, features, languages, accessories, safety levels or maintenance operations. Users select the configuration, and the document is generated instantly. The system operates without dependency on proprietary LCSI software.


You retain full control, independence and the ability to evolve the solution over time. This represents a real operational shift for organizations managing complex product ranges.

A simple solution to automate technical documentation

The configurator relies on a clear and pragmatic logic:

A data table describes product characteristics, while a structured Microsoft Word® document template integrates conditional rules.

Based on the selected options, the document is generated automatically and in real time, including the relevant sections, applicable procedures, corresponding safety instructions, required illustrations or diagrams, and model-specific technical data.

This approach creates a controlled documentation ecosystem that remains fully independent of proprietary software vendors. No advanced technical skills are required. The logic remains transparent, scalable and easy to maintain.

Why automate technical
documents ?

Faster production cycles

Automatically generated documents eliminate manual copy-paste, repetitive formatting tasks, human errors and long revision cycles. The time savings are substantial.

Full consistency across documents

All documents are generated from a single reference framework, ensuring consistent tone, technical accuracy, regulatory compliance and reduced discrepancies between versions.

Dynamic and scalable documentation

When data changes, whether related to options, wording, product composition, language or procedures, updates are applied automatically.

Future documents are generated with the latest information without additional effort.

Independence from proprietary software

The system operates using Microsoft Word® and Microsoft Excel®. 

No additional licenses are required beyond standard office tools. 

No vendor lock-in.
