industries.
STE Requirements for Contracts and Specifications:

maintenance of commercial aircraft. STE is required for NATO and Government defense procurement of Air, Land, Sea and Space vehicles.

Renewable Energy, Chemicals and Industrial Manufacturing.
Agencies that Require STE for Airworthiness:
ICAO, EASA(Europe), FAA(USA), CAA(UK/Canada) and CAAC(China)
Mandatory Compliance:
When a contract specifies ASD-STE100, the documentation
must use the STE vocabulary and simplified grammar rules, which become a binding deliverable.
Documentation Focus:
STE is used for procedures, maintenance, training and technical information.
STE is not suitable for marketing or business correspondence.
