ILS & Technical information services
Accurate, complete, vessel-specific and easily accessible technical information for ships not only enhances safety and accessibility – it also reduces the total life-cycle cost. SSPA provides qualified services in the fields of ILS and technical information. Successful ILS work means that the end user has easy access to accurate documentation and relevant training, and that maintenance measures and the provision of spare parts are kept at optimum levels throughout the entire lifecycle.
SSPA has unique expertise and experience in managing the entire ILS and documentation process for vessel owners, shipping companies and defence organisations.
SSPA can assist in a number of ways, including information analysis, the production, quality assurance and efficient publication of technical information, as well as practical verification of maintenance measures on board vessels.

Implementing S1000D for Swedish military assault and support crafts
How do you continuously manage technical publications for a large fleet of military assault and support crafts? You do this by implementing S1000D, the International Specification for Technical Publications. SSPA supports the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) in several projects with information analysis, data conversion, restructuring, content revisions, and quality assurance.
Case study, S1000D
Accurate, complete, boat-specific and easily accessible technical information for vessels and boats not only enhances safety and accessibility, but also reduces the total lifecycle cost. SSPA has written a case study describing a recently finished S1000D project for the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration. The case study describes our work from start to finish, including pre-history, challenges, project lessons and visions for the future.
