iSpec 2200: Information Standards for Aviation Maintenance, Revision 2024.1

Description

ATA iSpec 2200 is a global aviation industry standard for the content, structure, and electronic exchange of aircraft engineering and maintenance information. It consists of a suite of data specifications pertaining to maintenance requirements and procedures and aircraft configuration control. The objective of iSpec 2200 is to minimize cost and effort expended by operators and manufacturers, improve information quality and timeliness, and facilitate manufacturers' delivery of data that meets airline operational needs. Recognizing the synergies between ATA Spec 100 and Spec 2100, the industry developed this consolidated specification for guidance in preparing technical documentation in support of aircraft maintenance. It includes the industry-wide standard for numbering aircraft systems, as well as content and electronic formatting specifications for technical documents, regardless of delivery medium. Document-Type Definitions (DTDs) are included.
