NIVOMAX CAPSTONE

One platform for the complete technical publications lifecycle

NIVOMAX brings authoring, publishing, commercial licensing, access control and viewing into one integrated platform for aviation technical publications. Run it on infrastructure you control and add applications or extension modules as your requirements grow.

What’s new in NIVOMAX Capstone

THE NIVOMAX PLATFORM

Five applications. One connected lifecycle.

Five applications cover the technical publications lifecycle from authoring through use. Every installation requires Arkitect and Axis, plus at least one Horizon delivery. Add Syntaxis for authoring and Aerotrade for commercial management.

  1. AUTHOR

    Syntaxis

  4. CONTROL REQUIRED

    Manage organizations, users, roles, data licenses, entitlements, devices and downloads from the platform administrative portal.

  5. VIEW ONE DELIVERY REQUIRED

    Use interactive technical publications online or offline across web, desktop, network and supported mobile deliveries.

ONE INSTALLATION

Applications that work as one platform

NIVOMAX applications share the same publication, organization and entitlement model. Arkitect publishes the libraries Axis distributes. Horizon applies Axis access decisions when users activate and open content. When Aerotrade is licensed, approved commercial entitlement flows into Axis. Syntaxis can hand governed source content directly into the publishing process.

The result is a connected technical publications environment without forcing every customer to license every application.

TECHNICAL DATA

Work with current standards and established publication formats

NIVOMAX supports structured and legacy technical publication sources so programs can modernize without treating every existing publication as a conversion project.

  • S1000D

    Support for S1000D Issues 4.0.1, 4.1, 4.2 and 5.0.

  • ATA publications

    Support for ATA iSpec 2200 and ATA-100 content.

  • Existing technical data

    Process supported XML, SGML, PDF, Word, static HTML, image sets, CGM and SVG content as part of the publishing workflow.

  • Customer-specific formats

    Customer-specific and proprietary formats can be supported through a custom extension that transforms the source into a publication structure NIVOMAX can process and deliver.

YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE

Single-tenant by design

Each NIVOMAX Capstone installation runs for one Licensee on infrastructure that organization controls. Deploy on premises, in a customer-operated cloud tenancy, or in a restricted environment where connectivity is tightly controlled.

  • Customer-controlled

    Applications, publication content and identity data remain inside the Licensee's infrastructure.

  • Connected or isolated

    Support connected operations as well as restricted and air-gapped environments, with offline publication access where the selected Horizon delivery supports it.

  • Enterprise identity

    Integrate with the customer identity provider through the NIVOMAX identity layer using SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0 or OpenID Connect. Supported capabilities vary by protocol and identity provider.

HORIZON DESKTOP COMPANION

Connect maintenance fault codes to the right troubleshooting content

NIVOMAX Relay is an optional Windows companion to Horizon Desktop. It receives a fault code from a maintenance system and hands the request to Horizon, which resolves the configured library and applies the user's entitlement before opening the matching content.

Relay does not hold publication content, authenticate users or make entitlement decisions.
