DITA-OT Projects allow you to publish multiple deliverables at once. Each deliverable specifies a reusable source context that groups the maps or topics you want to publish, an output folder, and a publication format (such as HTML, or PDF) with transformation parameters.
For more information about DITA-OT Projects, see the official DITA-OT documentation.
