What else might you need?

As well as the ATA iSpec 2200 application pack, you may wish to consider other services from our extensive portfolio.

FrameMaker+SGML licensing

Your licensing requirements, and the most cost-effective way to fulfil them, will depend on the number of authors using the pack. As an Adobe Licence Centre (ALC), we can provide licences through Adobe's Open Options licensing programmes. We also offer unlimited support contracts.

Training

You can use FrameMaker+SGML for your other authoring requirements, both in traditional technical publications and SGML documentation. Our training will help your staff to get the most out of this powerful tool.

Management

We can integrate various tools into the ATA iSpec 2200 application pack to help you manage your SGML data and multi-author environments.

Customisation

We can help you modify the standard ATA iSpec 2200 output format to meet your own or your customers' requirements. We can provide other DTDs for the ATA iSpec 2200 application pack. We are currently working on the full Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) and our future plans include the Wiring Manual (WM), Structural Repair Manual (SRM) and Reduced CMM.
