What is IETM ?

Interactive Electronic Technical Manual

IETM is an electronic version of traditional Manuals, which are converted into a database and accessed through web-based software called IETM viewer.

Manual:

A manual is any document or literature organized and written in a specific format to guide the user.

Technical Manual:

A technical manual provides detailed technical information, such as user instructions and maintenance procedures. Traditionally, this refers to printed (hard copy) documents.

Electronic Technical Manual (ETM):

An ETM is a digital version of a manual, which may be provided as a PDF file or as a database-driven software application (soft copy).


Interactive Electronic Technical Manual (IETM):

An IETM enables two-way interaction between the user and the electronic system or computer. It responds to user input, allowing an interactive experience.

In essence, when an electronic user manual can interact and respond to your questions or actions, it is referred to as an Interactive Electronic Technical Manual (IETM).

IETM document is a term often used by the defence. IETM is not a Word file or PDF file, or any other file format.

IETM means Database+IETM Viewer

When someone asks you to share the document, you need to share the IETM database and IETM Viewer software.

JSS 0251 – Technical Documentation

  JSS 251 Joint Service Specifications, JSS 0251-01: 2015 (Revision No-2) What is JSS 251? JSS 251 is a defence documentation standard. To make it simpler, whenever we buy some household item, be it a fridge or AC, we get a user manual. If you look closely, each company follows their documentation structure or pattern and content flow. There will not be any similarities in formatting or layout. Every Original Equipment Manufacturer(OEM) has their separate documentation teams and they design in their own way. Even the size and dimensions of the document may be different. Similarly whenever a simple system or complex system is delivered to defence users i.e. Army, navy or air force, along with the Original Equipment Manufacturer(OEMs) also have to supply Manuals. But, in this Defence supplier case, the defence wants all the OEMs to follow similar standards that are defined by them. They want every OEM to follow the document structure the same way. These guidelines are drafted in JSS ...
