Technical Writer – Environmental Management System Manual – $40-50 / hr

Our client, a leader in the Airline industry, is seeking a Technical Writer to develop a comprehensive ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) Manual. To achieve this, they would like to hire a consultant with expertise in Adobe FrameMaker to guide them through creating a tailored EMS manual. This will be a short-term project, lasting 2-4 weeks, depending on how many hours worked each week (open to full-time or part-time hours).  All the content is ready – it just needs to be assembled into an editable Adobe Framemaker file. Must have expertise in FrameMaker and training skills to teach key team members how to use FrameMaker and how to update the EMS Manual as needed. 

Project Objectives

• Systematically assemble an EMS manual by incorporating EMS procedures using Adobe FrameMaker, with a PDF file and a FrameMaker editable file as the final product.
• Format the EMS manual to include the necessary supporting manual elements: Table of Contents, Definitions, References, etc. AS will supply some of these elements while others will need to be created.
• Provide training to AS Environmental Affairs on basic functions of Adobe FrameMaker to successfully update the EMS Manual once it is created.

Scope of Work

• Manual Development: Assemble an EMS manual utilizing AS-provided materials, including policy statement, procedures, and various other inclusions. Create and include other elements to ensure the EMS manual is formatted correctly. The AS EMS Manual will be a functional document. Therefore, embedding working hyperlinks into the manual is preferred. Provide revisions as needed until a final draft is accepted by AS Environmental Affairs.
• Training: Provide virtual training to AS Environmental Affairs personnel. The training shall consist of a tutorial for basic manual/content updates, formatting, and file inputs in FrameMaker.
