Documents Required to Make IETM Level 4 Software Code and Pixels

What do we, Code and Pixels need to make IETM Level -4? Inputs that are required to make IETM level-4. or Contribution of OEM while developing the IETM.

What Inputs Are Required to Make Ietm Level 4?

To make IETM we need Inputs in the form of documents and a little guidance from Subject matter experts is needed from the OEM.

IETM means Interactive electronic technical manuals. To make the IETM, we need all the manuals which are in electronic format. It means soft copies i.e. DOC files or PDF files of all the manuals finalized and reviewed by the relevant approval authority i.e. DGQC, MAG etc and all the Drawings, Images and Videos if you have any.

• Manuals

• Drawings

• Images / Videos

  Documents Mean, What Are the Various Documents You Need?

  Based on your delivered equipment the type of documents may vary. A big system or Machinery will have many more documents than a small system or component.

  Hence, there is no fixed rule on what documents will go into the IETM.

  For example, as shown on the screen, a bigger system may have many documents compared to a smaller system. Assuming that the deliverable is a missile then a lot of documents go into the IETM. If the deliverable is some component or Pump or single Radar or small LRU, then fewer documents may go into the IETM database.

  Document Variability in IETM Based on System Size and Complexity

• We also need Subject matter experts available to finalize IETM home page Module boxes, Table of Contents etc. Once the documents are converted to a database, then hyperlinking and Hot spots are done.

• With our knowledge, we will be able to make 50 % of interactivity between documents and topics. With the Guidance of Subject matter experts, other tasks like related topics linkage, Search indexing, and Hotspots will be done to complete the development process of IETM Level 4.

• Softcopies means, Documents in PDF or DOC format and kindly be sure that they are text copy able, not raster/ scanned images.
