As
a newly appointed Federal Government "Plain Language" Contractor,
Techstyle Group LLC makes your clear thoughts visible.
HOUSTON, TX-Techstyle Group LLC, a U.S. Government Services Administration
(GSA) contractor based in Houston, has just been added to the Plain
Language Vendor list on the Federal Plain Language Action & Information
Network.
This U.S. market initiative was established to improve
government communication to the public. Laurel Prokop emphasizes,
"people should
be able to understand what they read, especially when they read
materials
that tell them
how to obtain benefits or comply with requirements."
The Federal Plain Language goal is to increase public trust
in
government,
reduce government costs, and reduce the burden on the public
by training government entities to use clear communication
through
plain language. Listed vendors are qualified to train
government as well as private entities in the use of plain
language and
to perform high caliber communication services for public
and
private
organizations.
Techstyle Group specifically helps companies and organizations
adhere to these three principles:
- Use reader-oriented writing. Write for your customers, not
for other corporate or government employees.
- Use natural expression. To the extent possible, write as you
would speak. Write with commonly used words in the way
that they are typically used.
- Make your document visually appealing. Present your text
in a way that highlights the main points you want to
communicate.
