In May this year, the managing directors Kai Ritter and Thomas Stein of ASN GmbH took part in the ATA e-business forum in Seattle.
The ATA e-business forum is regarded as the leading information event on the topic of recent and further development at ATA on the technical documentation sector. It brought up to date the latest developments and the standards used in the technical documentation, such as iSpec 2200, Spec 42, Spec 2300 in comparison to S1000D. It also provides a good overview of the requirements and industry initiatives to create an effective and efficient information and data interchange between airlines and manufacturers.
Kai Ritter and Thomas Stein updated their information about the future development in the field of technical documentation standards such as S1000D and ATA iSpec2200. Their main focus is the present and future status of S1000D and ATA iSpec2200.
A concise statement of Tim Larson that the ATA e-business does not work to merge the ATA iSpec with the S1000D, but to further develop the S1000D upon the ATA requirements in the civilian aeronautics industry. ATA will always be an essential part of civilian aviation!
For the future order situation this statement has to be judged to be a positive prognosis by Tim Larson, so the two managing directors of ASN GmbH.
