ETI TEK-NET Library Indexing Project • A process to capture documents needed by tool and equipment companies to design and build tools and equipment that emulate those found in dealerships. Index those documents and provide a search mechanism. • An SQL based database to house indexing information • Controlled Abstraction Process • Security - A Web Based Administrator for granting and controlling system and user access • A Web Based Retrieval Application to include Key word, fixed field and Free-Form Searching of Abstracts and documents • A Collaborative “wiki” Abstract Editing Tool.

ETI OEM Tool & Equipment Index Flow Chart NASTF General Meeting Meeting
Goals • Provide a place for potential ETI members to determine if the information they seek is available. • Provide a place for potential OEM licensees to determine if the information they seek is available. • Ability to manage changes (update/change files) directly by each OEM. • More secure than CD or DVD distribution • It could eliminate the need for the NASTF Scan Tool Matrix • Search entire library in a variety of ways – before there was no search utility except for what exists on a PC. • As a Public user - Ability to see that a specific file exists without actually revealing the proprietary contents. • https://securehost.totalsol.com/Tek-Net_Data_Search/ NASTF General Meeting Meeting
