US Air Force Purchases Global Enterprise License of TEXTML Server for Technical Documentation Publishing

Montreal, QU (ots)

IXIASOFT OEM Partner, Veridian Systems, to
Provide TEXTML Server-Based Electronic Interactive Technical Manual
(IETM) Solution for Use Throughout the US Air Force
IXIASOFT, the XML Content Server market leader, announced today a
global enterprise licence agreement with Veridian Systems for
inclusion of a single- concurrent user version of TEXTML Server(R)
within the Air Force Common Viewer, at the US Air Force. Veridian
Systems is a leading information technology solutions company serving
government, defense and intelligence communities.
Veridian had originally partnered with IXIASOFT in 2001 by
embedding TEXTML Server(R) at the core of the TPM component of the
ITOOLS product, a product aimed at supporting US Air Force
maintenance personnel by providing browser-based access to electronic
technical manuals for the E-3 Airborne Warning and Control System
(AWACS) aircraft. This product is a document preparation, search,
retrieval, and viewing solution developed specifically for and in
conjunction with the US Air Force. The initial project exceeded
expectations and led the US Air Force to embark on the development of
the Air Force Common Viewer (AFCV), a new and enhanced version of the
TPM software that will provide the above (and additional)
capabilities to other weapons systems such as the A-10, B-52, C-130,
F-16, and the HH-60.
With this agreement, the US Air Force will be able to provide all
USAF IETM users with the AFCV product installed locally on their
laptops, representing thousands of single-user licenses. The AFCV
allows IETM users to access thousands of pages of technical manuals
and perform complex searches, all while running on a laptop. Users
will also be able to maintain the currency of their technical manuals
by logging on to the Air Force's intranet to download document
updates.
"The AFCV will be the standard tool that Air Force maintainers use
to service weapons systems," said Bruce Watson, AFCV Project Manager
at Veridian Systems. "The AFCV delivers on the promise of IETM
initiatives launched by various defense bodies. It provides easier,
timely access to critical information in a cost efficient way."
"TEXTML Server was designed to deliver fast access to large
volumes of documents, all while running on minimal hardware," said
Philippe Gelinas, President of IXIASOFT. "By installing the AFCV on
thousands of laptops, the US Air Force is exploiting the benefits of
TEXTML Server as its design was intended. We are extremely proud of
this achievement through our association with Veridian and the US Air
Force."
