The MTF system was developed at CERN to capture the design, manufacturing and test data of equipment built for LHC. Today, more than 80.000 descriptions of LHC equipment are managed using the MTF. The system handles both production data and non-conformance issues. The acquisition of the equipment data is both an organisational and a technical challenge. On the organisational side many different aspects of production and management have to be taken into account. The LHC equipment suppliers, wherever their production facilities are located, whatever their computer skills or rates of production are, need a user friendly environment to provide the data with a very limited effort on the shop floor. For expensive equipment such as the LHC dipoles a reliable and robust non-conformance methodology must be put in place, the MTF provides the required information technology support tools. The EDMS Service has developed methods, training processes and tools to cope with an extensive use of the system, a use that will grow during the next years until the LHC is installed. This paper presents the experience acquired and the solutions put in place.

CERN is building its new accelerator, the LHC. All the data flow generated during its lifecycle is stored in the EDMS (Engineering Data Management System) developed at CERN. For such a system it is compulsory to have a performant search mechanism to guarantee that the involved people gets the data at the required time. Due to the size of the collection and the diversity of people, organizations, divisions . To overcome this problem, an approach based on a hand-crafted domain specific ontology has been tested in order to improve the information retrieval task within the technical documentation for the LHC Equipment Catalog. The experiments have shown that using the ontology an improvement on the base line has been produced and encorages IE techniques to refine the base ontology.
