SGML is an international standard for the definition of device-independent, system-independent methods of representing text in electronic form. The SGML standard is managed by the ISO, the world's largest developer and publisher of international standards. ISO is a network of the national standards institutes of 159 countries, one member per country, with a Central Secretariat in Geneva, Switzerland, that coordinates the system. The SGML standard is referenced as ISO 8879.

HTML is the publishing language used by the World Wide Web. HTML gives authors the means to:

• Publish online documents with headings, text, tables, lists, photos, and more
• Retrieve online information through hypertext links, at the click of a button
• Design forms for conducting transactions with remote services, for use in searching for information, making reservations, ordering products, and more
• Include spreadsheets, video clips, sound clips, and other applications directly in their documents

Common practices for HTML have been established by the HTML Working Group of the W3C. A standard international document character set for HTML has been established as ISO 10646.

XML is a simple and flexible text format derived from SGML. Originally designed to meet the challenges of large-scale electronic publishing, XML is also used to facilitate the electronic exchange of a wide variety of data. The formal specification for XML is published by The XML Core Working Group of the W3C.

InfoTrust personnel are experts at SCORM. We can develop web-based training that complies with SCORM standards.

SCORM is a collection of standards and specifications for web-based training that defines requirements for accessibility, interoperability, durability, and reusability for both training content and systems.

It was developed by ADL to meet the United States Department of Defense’s requirements for web-based training.

InfoTrust personnel have expertise on the S1000D technical documentation standard. InfoTrust has produced S1000D-compliant data on behalf of its customers. AMDS S1000D Suite automates technical content management in compliance to the S1000D standard.

S1000D is an international specification for the production and procurement of technical publications. This specification was initially developed by ASD. The standard is now at Issue 4 and is jointly produced by ASD, AIA, ATA, and their customers. These groups form the S1000D Council and the S1000D Steering Committee to establish standards for documentation agreed upon by the participating parties. From Issue 2, the scope has been extended to include land- and sea-specific applications. The specification can now also be used for the support of any type of equipment including both military and civil products.

ATA Spec 2000 is a global aviation specification to automate the business processes and information exchanges associated with aircraft parts, materiel, and reliability. This specification encompasses a wide variety of information exchanges and is used broadly by the world's airlines and suppliers. Subject areas include:

• Provisioning
• Spares and procurement planning
• Purchase order administration and invoicing
• Repair order administration
• Reliability data exchange
• Delivery configuration
• Warranty processing
• Parts tracking and traceability, including the use of bar code, 2d data matrix, and RFID technologies
• Industry performance metrics

ATA iSpec 2200 is a global aviation specification for the content, structure, and electronic exchange of information related to aircraft engineering, maintenance, and flight operations. iSpec 2200 was developed as a consolidation of ATA Spec 100 and ATA Spec 2100, and provides guidance on the preparation of technical documentation related to aircraft maintenance including maintenance requirements and procedures, aircraft configuration control, and flight operations.

InfoTrust personnel have expertise on the S2000M provisioning standard. InfoTrust has produced S2000M-compliant provisioning data on behalf of its customers.

S2000M standardizes information exchange requirements for materiel management functions. S2000M is based on a business model agreed upon between military customers and industry suppliers. Using a common data set, S2000M defines business rules for various stages of the materiel management process, and provides various sets of standard messages that business partners use to exchange information in an unambiguous way. The current version of S2000M, Issue 4.0, is arranged in six chapters.

• Provisioning – Defines how the supplier should provide information to the customer about the selection of support items and spares
• Procurement Planning – Defines how the supplier should provide information on parts offered for sale and how prices should be agreed upon
• Order Administration – Covers placement of orders, monitoring of order processing, and delivery
• Invoicing – Defines how invoice data should be transmitted to the customer
• Repair Administration – Covers management of repair orders, monitoring spares consumption, and repair forecast planning
• S2000M Light – Provides guidance on how to follow light S2000M procedures that cover only the essential business processes while still operating on the principles described in the full specification (Chapters 1 to 5).
