IETM: Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals Design and Development

In this era of Digitization, IETM (Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals) have replaced traditional paper-based technical manuals, offering enhanced accessibility, easier maintenance, and improved interactivity. Our S1000D IETM are designed and developed in accordance to JSG & MIL standards, employing a frame-oriented design that allows them to function seamlessly as a Desktop Application, Portable Digital Application, or Mobile App. This ensures greater flexibility and accessibility across various devices and operating systems

IETM Classifications

Electronically Indexed Page Images

Digitized page images indexed by creating a static table of contents manually to a specific set of pages and can’t be dynamically editable.

Level -01

Electronic Scrolling Documents

Page oriented live ASCII-encoded documents using SGML/HTML or XML language with intelligent index, hypertext tags and multimedia content. Achieved by a simple conversion procedure to create tagged document files with content driven options in some areas for navigation between documents.

Level-02

Linear Structured IETM

A linear structured index following MIL-D-87269 specification, Hypertext presentation system for display in accordance to MIL-M-87268 specification & Hypertext tags and multimedia contents placed in tabular data.

Level-03

Linear Structured IETM

A linear structured index following MIL-D-87269 specification, Hypertext presentation system for display in accordance to MIL-M-87268 specification & Hypertext tags and multimedia contents placed in tabular data.

Level-03

Hierarchically Structured IETM

Hierarchically structured and frame-oriented, utilizing a run-time database for interactive presentations in compliance with MIL-M-87268, MIL-D-87269, and MIL-Q-87270 IETM specifications. It employs SGML/HTML and XML languages, making it "data-driven". Facilitates dynamic hypertext-tagged presentations between cross-data modules and related data modules, incorporating features such as annotations, bookmarking, hotspotting, and additional functionalities like inventory management based on end-user requirements

Level -04

Integrated Data-Base IETIS

Integrated Electronic Technical Information System (IETIS) encompasses all the features of IETM Level 4, incorporating expert-system rules for displaying other applications and processing information such as test and remote equipment diagnostics, dynamic simulation data, dynamic logs, or computer-managed training. At Smartify, we excel in delivering these IETM (JSG & MIL) developed using contemporary technologies, languages, and frameworks capable of integrating SGML/HTML, XML, Word, PDF, PPTS, graphical representations.
