Auto-Documentation
Single point of entry for documentation combined with the auto-
documenting features of BPT will dramatically reduce the documentation
effort.
Scalability
Since this model is not build around individual contributors, it is highly
scalable. Efficient use of resources and a centralized model contributes to
the scalability as well.
Automates maintenance
and reduces costs
