SDL Contenta Publishing Suite for S1000D to
Support USAF as its Technical Data Solution for Content
Management
SDL (LSE: SDL), a global leader in content creation,
translation and delivery, has signed an enterprise agreement with
the United States Air Force (USAF) to provide the SDL Contenta
Publishing Suite for Technical Order (TO) creation, management and
delivery, which includes support of technical information into
predictive maintenance and analysis across all USAF assets.
With the enterprise license agreement, the USAF has entered the
last stage of its consolidation strategy to deliver a centralized
enterprise technical data creation, management and delivery
solution. The SDL solution will support maintenance and operations
personnel with diagnostic checklists and repair procedures,
interacting with other USAF systems such as health monitoring,
materials management and maintenance management systems.
The USAF’s Technical Order Authoring and Publishing (TOAP)
system is hosted and managed by the Air Force Lifecycle Management
Center, on behalf of the Air Force Material Command, and is its
single organic enterprise TO authoring and publishing system.
Originally implemented in 2006 as the Warner Robins-Integrated Data
for Maintenance (WR-IDM), the system provides content/configuration
management, process workflow, and authoring and publishing
capabilities to all USAF programs, as necessary to create and
sustain USAF TOs. Since the USAF inventory of TOs is currently
produced from a variety of source formats, including FrameMaker®,
Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), Hypertext Markup
Language (HTML), eXtensible Markup Language (XML) and S1000D
developed in compliance with USAF standards, the SDL solution was
identified as the only system that could meet the USAF’s enterprise
requirements.
TOAP will help manage technical content in support of the USAF’s
asset maintenance for all USAF programs, including the new T-X
trainer aircraft program, and various programs aligned under the
USAF Nuclear Weapons Center. The TOAP system is the single USAF
system supporting TO source data content/configuration management,
editorial sustainment, and publishing processes.
“The USAF is a diligent organization, looking to streamline
processes and gain maximum efficiencies across its global
operations,” said Thomas Labarthe, Chief Revenue Officer, SDL.
“We’re excited to have been selected by the USAF as its enterprise
technical data solution, and look forward to working closely with
the team to deliver efficiencies across its operations.”
The USAF selected SDL’s Contenta Publishing Suite after an
extensive assessment of the market’s commercial off-the-shelf
software providers. The USAF found SDL Contenta Publishing Suite to
be the only known integrated software suite solution that supports
and satisfies all USAF TO content/configuration management,
authoring and publishing requirements.
The SDL Contenta Publishing Suite for S1000D is a complete,
integrated, industry-proven publishing and interactive solution for
technical content, with functionality optimized for each step of
the publishing and maintenance processes. The Suite includes:
- Contenta S1000D Pre-configured Common Source Database
(CSDB)
- Live Content S1000D Interactive Electronic Technical
Publication (IETP)
- XPP Professional Publisher (an XML Publishing Engine)
The combination supports and manages complex technical documents
and delivers critical information to maintenance professionals,
helping to meet mission objectives, reduce mean time to repair, and
keep assets mission ready.
