In this paper, we propose a global architecture of a recommender tool, which represents a part of an existing collaborative platform. This tool provides diagnostic documents for industrial operators. The recommendation process considered here is composed of three steps: Collecting and filtering information; Prediction or recommendation step; evaluating and improvement. In this work, we focus on collecting and filtering step. We mainly use information result from collaborative sessions and documents describing solutions that are attributed to the complex diagnostic problems. The developed tool is based on collaborative filtering that operates on users' preferences and similar responses.
