CORENA partner RCM Technologies produces 1,500 data modules in only 6 weeks

 

RCM Technologies, Westerly RI, USA, is comprised of more than 60 skilled technical authors and illustrators who produce aircraft manuals for customers such as Sikorsky, Keystone Helicopters, Hamilton Sundstrand, Pratt & Whitney, Boeing and Gulfstream.

RCM Technologies made a strategic decision to use the AIA/ASD S1000D standard for all future technical publication work. In 2008 they engaged with CORENA and deployed the Life*S1000D authoring, publishing and distribution environment. Installation and training took less than a week where after authors and illustrators were producing deliverables directly to the customers, in production-ready format.

After using CORENA Life*S1000D, we have been able to produce and deliver 1,500 new Data Modules in just 6 weeks, monitor the degree of completion, reduce errors close to zero and publish manuals for different configurations of our customers aircraft by the press of a button”, says Rick Wood, Managing Director of RCM Technologies.
