Fathom 4’s documentation team creates our technical documentation by linking the engineering prototype group and the end user. Fathom 4 employs a management philosophy of embedding drafters, illustrators and technical writers on the production floor so there is direct communication between the engineering team and those performing the work. This dynamic gives the Fathom 4 team direct access to the drafters making the drawings, the technicians performing assembly, and engineers/ program managers making decisions.

This integrated team solution provides for immediate feedback to any questions that arise which improves the efficiency, accuracy, and effectiveness of the end product.

Fathom 4’s documentation team is experienced in creating custom graphics and line art for optimal printing from 3D models or digital photos. The team specializes in generating exploded views for the technical documents in order to reduce the reliance on digital photography and create a clear and logical format to the installation.

Specializing in C4ISR integration into military platforms, our technical documentation team is familiar with various military standards such as S1000D, MIL-STD-31000, ASME Y14.00, and Air Force and Army Interactive Electronic Technical Publication business rules.
