TeamSite Helps TI to Achieve 10-Fold Reduced Deployment Time for Market-Critical New Product Information

SUNNYVALE, Calif. October 9, 2000 - Interwoven, Inc. (Nasdaq: IWOV), the leading provider of enterprise-class content management software, today announced that Texas Instruments (TI) Incorporated has implemented Interwoven TeamSite to manage the development and deployment of technical, product and training content on its Web site (www.ti.com). TI, the global semiconductor company, is the world's leading designer and supplier of digital signal processing (DSP) and analog technologies. Already, TI has seen more than a 10-fold reduction in the time it takes to deploy new product information.

In the first phase of the implementation, TI is using Interwoven to manage technical content within two business areas of the site: the software development portion of the DSP section and the power management portion of the site's analog section. With Interwoven, TI has been able to enlist a growing number of site contributors, significantly streamlining the process of getting new content online. Key features have been Interwoven Templating, which lets contributors post content without having to worry about the formatting, and TeamSite's advanced workflow, which ensures all quality checks and approvals are completed before content is deployed to the site. TeamSite also integrates seamlessly with TI's eCommerce and personalization solution, ATG Dynamo product suite.

"We introduce new products into the market almost on a daily basis, and that really puts the pressure on us to keep content as fresh as possible," said Jane Schoen, director of TI's Internet channel. "With Interwoven TeamSite Templating, we're now able to create and post new content several times a day if necessary. Before the implementation, it would take us as much as a week to make content changes."

In the second and third phases of the implementation, TeamSite will be rolled out to all other DSP and analog content areas. TeamSite, featuring a hybrid architecture that supports all forms of content, also will be used to deploy multimedia content related to the product training section of the site.

TI plans to steadily increase the number of content contributors and the scope of site content over the next year, and it will rely heavily on Interwoven Templating and TeamSite workflow to make it easy to add new contributors including contributors from outside the United States. TI, is expecting to launch several country-specific sites, using Interwoven as the standard for content management. TeamSite's advanced workflow will also make it easy for TI to route content for translation and localization.

"Texas Instruments understands that the creation of timely, quality content starts with a broad cross-section of contributors," said Joe Ruck, vice president of marketing at Interwoven. "Interwoven brings the people who hold critical product and local market knowledge into the content-creation process, thanks to TeamSite's user-friendly interface and its ability to integrate with any authoring solution."
