Class IV Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs)
Our Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) enable Warfighters to operate and repair today’s highly sophisticated technology through vast improvements in data navigation and organization of content. IETMs enable functionality such as embedded videos, 3D graphics, wire traces, and graphic hot spotting capabilities. When combined with advanced automation of technical data through filtering, hyperlinking, and internal/external references, the Warfighter can quickly access information needed to repair and safely operate today’s complex systems.
Extensible Markup Language (XML)
With extensive knowledge in authoring in multiple XML formats, our XML SMEs provide NATOPS flight manual support according to MIL-DTL-85025B and maintenance manual support according to MIL-STD-3001. We focus our services on the advanced capabilities of S1000D, the international standard for technical data. We have developed processes in strict compliance with S1000D specifications that enable our customers to have more capable, more reliable data with the ability to rapidly update the Warfighter’s publications.
Common Source Database (CSDB) Management and Publishing
Advanced CSDB software capabilities empower our professional data managers to enhance functionality in an S1000D IETM as well as share common data across multiple projects. Our data managers and authors utilize advanced CSDB methods to maximize the advantages of S1000D, while sharing common data across projects that have over 40,000 data modules and 30,000 graphics each.
Transition Support
Converting data to S1000D may be a complex process, but our team of experts has the precise knowledge needed to transition any data format successfully. We can perform Business Rules (BR) development and Standard Numbering System (SNS) creation, to Data Module Requirements List (DMRL) development. Our XML, technical, and CSDB SMEs can prepare your data for the future.
Reutilization of Data
Our state-of-the-art processes achieve a reutilization rate of over 85%, significantly reducing sustainment costs and streamlining revision schedules. Exploiting the capabilities of Common Information Repositories, our team can dynamically publish custom and tailored publications for multiple customers operating similar systems in a fraction of time and cost.
Sanitization of Data
Given that sensitive data can be shared unknowingly, it’s more important than ever to prevent data leakage to Foreign Military Sales (FMS) countries. Our team has developed scripted coding that identifies restricted data in the XML to prevent successful data mining by foreign users.
Aircraft Maintenance Training
Our team of experts has accumulated over 600 years of aircraft maintenance experience, with more than 75% possessing formal training certifications.
Our training solutions are turnkey:
- Training Front End Analysis (FEA), training device analysis, and specification development.
- Courseware development to support both instructor-led and self-paced training.
- Fleet Integration Training (FIT) to sustain training as aircraft systems or capabilities change.
- Foreign Military Sales (FMS) training CONUS/OCONUS to prepare foreign Warfighters.
- Advanced automated training solutions to assess, remediate, and improve fleet readiness.
Logistic Advisors
Our veteran maintenance managers offer comprehensive assistance to the customer throughout the project lifecycle, providing professional advice, recommendations, and feedback across all logistical facets:
- Logistics Conference & Program Development (LC&PD) to support program requirements.
- Counsel on manpower assessments, facilities development, transportation coordination, and maintenance operations.
- Training plan development for the Training Planning Conference (TPC) to ensure proficiency.
- Program Management Review (PMR) conferences to address inquiries and solutions.
- Technical Interchange Meeting (TIM) support and participation.
- Tooling program development aligned with customer requirements and shipping considerations.
Success
“ASEC continues to surpass my expectations. With over 20 years’ experience in the technical publication industry, I have never been more impressed with their ability to implement new capabilities and satisfy customer request.”
“The P-8A IETM has become the industry standard as the largest and most capable organic IETM across NAVAIR. The processes ASEC has developed enables NAVAIR to share IETMs with cooperative partners and FMS customers.”
