Question 2

Is MDDV different than other IETMs on the market today? YES!

Accepted Answer

Yes, MDDV is the only 6-Gen IETM/P on the market. MDDV supports all data types (S1000D, SGML, PDF, 3D), in zero-footprint. MDDV automates predictive and preventative maintenance data collection, curation, and analysis and customizes business intelligence dashboards, I-See™, that highlight problems and offer data-driven solutions using AI and ML. Finally, the Hey Chief™ social network enables secure file sharing and live messaging and video calling.    As one MQ-9 technician said, “Dude, this MDDV thingy is pretty damn sweet! The Air Force finally got it right.” Another technician said, “Your program works eleventy-billion times better than the old system we were using.”

Question 3

Is MDDV secure? YES!

Accepted Answer

Powered by Bindows, MDDV automatically adapts to the highest security settings imposed on a network, with zero lost functionality. MDDV is concurrently operating on Northrop Grumman’s secure network and is the only IETM/P certified to operate on the Air Force’s Secret Internet Protocol Network (SIPRNet). MDDV is also operationally used on the AWSGC (Government cloud) by thousands of users.

Question 4

Does MDDV benefit Condition-Based Maintenance Plus (CBM+) data collection, management, and analysis? YES!"

Accepted Answer

Usage data automatically logged can be curated and published by MDDV AI and ML software to enable maintenance, logistics, engineering, supply chain, and operations managers to forecast predictive and preventative maintenance plans and schedules. MDDV is the most important Condition-Based Maintenance Plus (CBM+) enabler available to the A4 enterprise.    As one USAF Major heavily involved with CBM+ implementation across the Air Force stated, “If we want to be more effective faster, we need to holistically change what data we capture and how we capture that data. Stop having maintainers record information that no one looks at again. We then need to be able to rapidly and reliably exploit that newly captured data across multiple fronts to include maintenance planning, and wholesale and retail supply. This tool, when implemented within an eco-system, checks all of those boxes!”

Question 5

Is S1000D the only data format supported by MDDV? No!

Accepted Answer

MDDV securely utilizes all data types (S1000D, SGML, PDF, 3D) all in zero-footprint (not using any plugins, extensions, Flash, etc.) If your data is in SGML - you do not require expensive time-consuming S1000D data conversion to take advantage of the world’s most powerful IETM/P

Question 6

Is American Data Solutions an American company (owned and operated)? YES!

Accepted Answer

ADS is 100% American owned and operated and led by USAF veterans with more than 120 combined years of military aviation experience, teamed with amazingly innovative software engineers using unique development methodology to consistently deliver paradigm-shifting software.

Question 7

Does MDDV work with any hardware, software, or OS? YES!"

Accepted Answer

MDDV is 100% hardware, software, and OS agnostic. When used as connected (from the internet, cloud, network) it is 100% zero-footprint (all you need is to click on one link), from any major browser.

Question 8

Does MDDV require any plugins or extensions? No!

Accepted Answer

As a suite of web-based applications, MDDV functions seamlessly with zero plug-ins or extensions (including for displaying vector graphics, video, and 3D graphics and illustrations).

Question 9

Does MDDV function fully on touch or small screen devices? YES!

Accepted Answer

MDDV is designed to automatically adjust and function fully on touch screens and small screen sizes.

Question 10

Does MDDV support digital wiring? YES!

Accepted Answer

MDDV leads the industry in digital wiring. LiveWire™ is the most adaptable, interactive, interoperative digital wiring program on the market today and integrates completely with MDDV, Parts Wizard™, and interoperable backend IT systems.    As one senior USAF maintainer (level 9) exclaimed, “Wow! What you just did in 30 seconds takes 2 to 3 hours with what we have now!  Most 3-levels can’t even do it.”

Question 11

Does MDDV support Partial Data Delivery (PDD)? YES!

Accepted Answer

MDDV supports PDD so small updates can be provided quickly and efficiently (no need to provide a complete copy of the whole dataset).

Question 12

Can MDDV run on the cloud? Internet? YES!

Accepted Answer

Yes, MDDV is fully operational (securely) from the internet, cloud (any cloud), and network. MDDV offers secure operation while connected online or using disconnected (standalone) eTools.

Question 13

Can MDDV deliver virtual (paperless) form workflow and logbooks? YES!

Accepted Answer

MDDV virtualizes aircraft, support equipment, and vehicle operations and maintenance forms & logbooks integrated within MDDV. MDDV ensures input data accuracy by auto-populating data elements direct from the IETM/P. MDDV auto-logs actions within the IETM/P and enables real-time aircraft health reporting to I-See™ maintenance management dashboards.

Question 14

Does MDDV modernize troubleshooting? YES!

Accepted Answer

MDDV logs and times each maintenance action including all troubleshooting steps, removed/installed parts, performed by all users, on all the aircraft, at all times. This data is fed into a sophisticated system that is using AI to curate corrective maintenance actions with discrepancies, and, using ML, provide recommended improvements to troubleshooting procedures based on historical troubleshooting and repair data.
