Proposed Draft Military Handbook for Preparation of View Packages in Support of Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs)

Abstract

This Report summarizes recent activities in the Department of Defense and in the US Navy, Army, and Air Force to establish Service of Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs) as replacements for paper Technical Manuals for logistic support of military equipment. The IETM concept is described, and an overview is provided of five IETM acquisition Specifications and Military Handbooks developed by the Tri-Service Interactive Electronic Technical Manual Working Group established in 1989 by the Defense Quality and Standardization Office. One of these five draft documents, MIL-HDBK-IETMVP, Guideline for Developing Specifications for Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETM) view Packages, 1 Jun 1990, is described and presented. (Four other companion Reports have been prepared to introduce and describe the four related IETM acquisition Specifications and Handbooks.) This Report summarizes the purpose and the structure of the View Package Handbook, which is written to provide guidance to a System Acquisition Manager for the preparation of IETM View Package acquisition Specifications.
