Ietp - technical publications

Interactive Electronic Technical Publications, in short, is called IETP. If you are a supplier of defence then along with the system/equipment you also need to provide training aids like CBT, Charts and blowup diagrams, Video films, Training work Modules and a few sets of Hard copies of the manuals and IETM. Till 2015, mainly Hardcopies and PDFs in DVDs used to be in deliverables. From 2015 onwards IETM is used in RFQ/SOTR/SCOPE as a deliverable. Any manual’s purpose is to give information related to the equipment to the end user for quick reference. All the technicality is written in detail so that when an issue arises, the user can refer to the manual, as every time OEM or technical person or subject matter expert might not be available on the spot to resolve the issue. If the manual has 10 pages users can refer easily. But any system used by the defence will have multiple manuals and thousands of page counts and many times a user has to cross-refer between manuals, intra-manual and inter-manual to resolve the issue. Referring to 10- 15 hard-copy or even soft-copy books simultaneously will be difficult and time-consuming. Using IETM software, users can solve in a single click and seconds. Level 1: Is any PDF file Level 2: Is a PDF file with hyperlinks from the table of contents to the body etc. Level 3: Is an HTML application. More hyperlinks, simple search, a content tree having log in screen with a hardcoded username and password and supplied in the format of EXE so that Windows can easily open Level 4: Is Software plus Content/manuals converted as Database Regarding Level -5, rest assured, till 2028 it will be Level 4 only. As of now, there is nothing practically called Level -5. Few are calling virtual reality and Augmented reality and Artificial intelligence Level 5. Pulling data from many user inputs and analyzing and giving results are done in Level -5. IETM software cannot pull the data from various real-time points as No OEM will give the real-time information to third-party software directly. Yes, if the information is available offline, then that information can be imported into IETM and can be used as a reference. Implementing VR / AR and Artificial Intelligence itself costs 10 times more than actual equipment cost. Hence for the next few years till AR/VR and artificial intelligence are affordable.
