OASIS is pleased to announce that Inmedius® has become the newest Sponsor-level member of the open standards consortium. Inmedius provides lifecycle solutions to aerospace, defense and technical publication organizations worldwide. The company delivers performance-oriented applications that capture, create, manage and deploy technical information assets. Inmedius integrates information assets within business processes using state-of-the-art workflow and collaborative techniques. 

Newly released, Inmedius® Horizon™ facilitates the professional management of content, delivering tools and information to efficiently manage a technical publications department.  The comprehensive module solution supports industry technical documentation standards, including DITA, ATA iSpec 2200, DocBook, numerous military specifications, and customized Document Type Definitions (DTD) all in one solution.  Horizon also supports a number of document formats, regardless of whether they are SGML or XML, Adobe® Acrobat® PDF or Microsoft® Word formats, or illustration, graphic, sound or other media files.  The system integrates seamlessly with popular authoring platforms, including built-in plug-ins for Adobe® FrameMaker® and PTC® Arbortext Editor™, as well as the Inmedius S1000D Publishing Suite™.

Horizon users also benefit from its tight integration with both Microsoft® Project and Excel. Horizon defines, builds and maintains its own internal Project schedule for each item. Integration with Excel allows costs to be examined and analyzed through custom spreadsheets for each document, reuse object or assigned object. Horizon’s flexible reporting engine retrieves data quickly and efficiently, outputting the designated information to be shared among all stakeholders of a technical documentation project.

Inmedius is headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA and has offices in Canada, the United Kingdom and Germany.
