S1000D Authoring & Conversion

Accu Solutions specializes in S1000D authoring and conversion services for technical manuals. Converting legacy technical manuals to S1000D is a complex and time-consuming process, but Accu Solutions adopts the best practices that help make the process smoother and more efficient. Here are a few key steps that Accu Solutions takes to ensure a successful conversion process:

1. Conducts a thorough analysis of your technical manuals: Before starting the conversion process, it’s important to conduct a detailed analysis of the legacy technical manuals. This includes identifying the types of content, such as text, images, and diagrams, and assessing the quality and consistency of the content. This analysis will help to understand the scope of the project and identify any challenges or issues that may need to be addressed.

2. Define the conversion strategy for S1000D: Once Accu Solutions has a clear understanding of the legacy technical manuals, they begin to develop a conversion strategy for S1000D. This includes a plan for how the technical manuals will be migrated to S1000D, as well as any tools or software that will be used in the process. It’s important to develop a comprehensive plan that includes timelines, resources, and milestones to ensure the project stays on track.

3. Develop the Business Rules EXchange (BREX) and the Standard Numbering System (SNS) Structure: Accu Solutions can develop a customized Business Rules EXchange (BREX) and Standard Numbering System (SNS) Structure that fits your specific needs. It is critical to make sure that the conversion process is successful. Adjustments to the BREX and SNS may be necessary depending on the legacy technical manuals, but having a clear structure in place (like BREX and SNS creation) helps make the process smoother and more efficient.

4. Leverage automation tools for S1000D conversion: Converting legacy technical manuals to S1000D can be a time-consuming process, but Accu Solutions have several tools available that help automate some of the tasks. For example, tools such as content analysis and transformation tools to identify and tag content for conversion, while publishing tools can help generate output in the required S1000D format.

5. Test and validate the converted technical manuals: Once the technical manuals have been converted to S1000D, Accu Solutions test and validate them to ensure they meet the required standards. This includes checking the technical manuals for accuracy, consistency, and completeness, as well as testing the output to make sure that it can be used with the required S1000D software.

Overall, converting legacy technical manuals to S1000D requires careful planning, attention to detail, and the right tools and resources. Accu Solutions convert your technical manuals and produce high-quality S1000D content that meets your needs.
