Reduce the total cost of ownership for NAVSEA’s technical data creation, management and distribution services in support of the U.S. Naval surface and underwater fleets.

NESL supports the Standard NAVSEA Integrated Publishing Process (SNIPP), which delivers multiple benefits, including: a streamlined ability to meet mission objectives, common and repeatable processes, standardized applications and data repositories, as well as data Integration across authoritative data sources.

Ron Stonecypher - “SDL’s technology has become the cornerstone of the Standard NAVSEA Integrated Publishing Process” “SNIPP manages technical data for every hull in the U.S. Navy’s fleet - and the NESL Program, created with SDL, helps us achieve our strategic rationalization, reduction and centralization goals.”

Mark Lancaster - “Content delivery is a critical component of all user experiences” “We’re honored to help the U.S. Navy with its centralization strategy for technical data management and delivery so that field technicians and supporting contractors can more easily understand and access technical content, resulting in important time and cost savings.”

Introductions

Common Industry Challenges

○ Complex and Highly Configurable Systems: Today's warfighters work with multiple, complex platforms and equipment. Most are configurable to meet the needs of different mission objectives. Each configuration variant requires technical documentation that assures proper use and maintenance of the equipment

○ Increased Demand for RAPID Update Cycles: Teams which maintain and deliver the technical documentation must deliver accurate and up-to-date information, for all equipment configurations and variants, under the pressure of increasingly shorter update cycles.

○ Tight Budget Environment: The cost of personnel, systems, training and ongoing sustainment is increasing at the same time funding is being squeezed and acquisition hurdles are increasing

○ Process: Project requirements are “Siloed” leading to redundant industry studies and solutions. Government Impact: project delays, increased project costs,

○ Continuous Improvement: Faster, better, at reduced cost

11

NAVSEA’s Challenges

○ No standard method of TM/IETM development

○ Some IETM’s that were developed were not compatible with

the infrastructure onboard the ships

○ NAVSEA needed a more timely and efficient TM/IETM

creation, delivery and distribution method, especially for

urgent changes

○ Increasing budget pressure

○ Acquisition rules becoming more complex

12

What if…

○ What if there was a common look, feel and set of functionality for viewing and interacting with the technical data for all NAVSEA equipment, so that once a war fighter was comfortable with using one IETM, they would know how to use an IETM for any other piece of equipment deployed by NAVSEA?

○ What if that NAVSEA IETM viewer could consume and deliver a consistent user experience with content produced by anyone, from anywhere, regardless of the data standard used?

○ What if NAVSEA implemented a common method of producing and distributing technical publications that guaranteed timely and efficient delivery to the fleet?

NAVSEA Strategy

○ Policy

– Navy’s Rationalization, Reduction and Centralization Strategy

• (Functional Area Management (FAM) Initiative) is a strategy used to identify, analyze and ultimately reduce the number of IT software applications and databases in use across all Navy networks.

• NAVSEA Instruction 4160 - “NAVSEA activities developing and managing S1000D content must use the Standard NAVSEA Integrated Publishing Process (SNIPP).”

○ Common Procedures, Tools and Infrastructure

– Standard NAVSEA Integrated Publishing Process (SNIPP)

• Standardization of NAVSEA TM/IETM Production

• Reduced Infrastructure

• Compliance with Navy Policies

• Security

• Distribution

○ Enterprise Licensing

– Navy Enterprise Subscription License (NESL) Program

– Includes all tools contained in the SDL Contenta Publishing Suite

14

SNIPP Benefits

○ U.S. NAVY – Reduction in Total Ownership Cost

○ PEOs/PMs – Affordable, government owned and supported, TM/IETM development environment

– Assurance that the infrastructure will support developed IETMs

○ TMMAs / ISEAs – Control over data regardless of who is doing the development

– Ability to distribute urgent changes quickly

○ Fleet – Common “look & feel” IETMs

– PDF output NAVSEAC2.dtd and S1000D (24784C compliant)

– Almost instantaneous access to finalized TMs/IETMs
