2、STD-967 w/CHANGE 1 FOREWORD 1. This standard is approved for use by all Departments and Agencies of the Department of Defense (DoD). 2. This is a new standard, which covers the format and content requirements for handbooks previously addressed by MIL-STD-962. The policies governing such procedural m
3、atters as authorization for document development, coordination, comment resolution, indexing and distribution, application, and document maintenance can be found in DoD 4120.24-M, “Defense Standardization Program Policies and Procedures.” 3. The primary reason for developing this new standard was to
4、 eliminate the confusion that resulted from the commingling of format and content requirements for both standards and handbooks in MIL-STD-962. While standards are intended to be mandatory requirements documents cited in contracts and other technical documents, handbooks are nonmandatory, guidance d
5、ocuments. Handbooks offer an opportunity to preserve institutional memory and suggest solutions that have worked, without mandating those solutions. 4. There have been many changes to the format requirements for handbooks, but some of the more significant ones are: a. Replacement of stand-alone chan
6、ge notices with changes integrated into the full handbook. b. Introduction of administrative notices to allow for nontechnical changes to be made quickly and without the need for coordination. c. Additional requirement to provide Internet addresses to contact organizations and obtain referenced docu
7、ments. d. Elimination of the DD Form 1426. e. Replacement of the Department of Defense Index of Specifications and Standards (DoDISS) with the Acquisition Streamlining and Standardization Information System (ASSIST) database. 5. The figures appearing at the back of this standard are fictitious and a
8、re used only as examples to illustrate format. If there is any conflict between the text of the document and the figures at the end of this document, the text applies. 6.
