IETMs are available in 2 standards

  • INDIAN Defense Standard (JSG 0852:2001)
  • European Aviation standard (S1000D)

INDIAN STANDARD

  • Government of India, Ministry of defense has framed few standards, Joint service Guide 0852:2001 and reframed in 2007.

European Aviation standard

  • It is called S1000D, mainly used in the Aviation industry
  • If the RFQ or tender documents say it is IETM means, it's Indian standard only. If the end-user wants S1000D, then specifically “S1000D IETM LEVEL -4” is mentioned.
