About this file

This is a Data Item Description (DID) document that specifies requirements for Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) manuals and associated supplemental data for Department of Defense use. The DID number is DI-TMSS-80527D, with an AMSC number of 10283, approved on December 3, 2021, and is under the primary responsibility of the Technical Manuals (TM) office. This document supersedes the previous version DI-TMSS-80527C from August 12, 2011.

The document defines three primary acquisition purposes: obtaining sample COTS manuals for evaluation, acquiring pre-evaluated and acceptable COTS manuals, and obtaining associated supplemental data as required. The content requirements mandate that manuals contain all technical information covering assembly, installation, operation, parts, and maintenance of commercial equipment. Manuals must be evaluated against criteria in MIL-PRF-32216. Format specifications require the basic manual to be presented in the contractor's format, with supplemental data in the acquiring activity's specified format. For electronic delivery, Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs) or PDFs are preferred, with PDF files requiring searchability, embedded fonts, and the capability for adding links. IETMs must comply with MIL-STD-40051-1 or MIL-STD-3031 (Army only). Paper manuals, if acquired, must be clearly legible and printed on quality paper suitable for long-term use. Quick Reference Guides must meet MIL-PRF-32614 requirements.
