ALM Depends on Project-Centric
Integration
|
|
|
|
|
In April's editio n
of the IFS Radio Network,
IFS
Co-Founder Ulf Stern and Senior Advisor Anders
Wilhelmsson discuss how project management
functionality that is tightly integrated with
Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) and Asset
Lifecycle Management (ALM) tools is essential to
executives of asset-intensive industries. Lacking
this integration, valuable asset data is lost and
asset utilization can not be maximized.

"An industry buying a stand-alone project tool may
make their project managers happy, but what about
all the other processes involved in that project?
There will be purchase requisitions for buying
materials.
They will need to control their suppliers and
contractors, and
control their internal engineers and technicians
involved in the project.
They will need to control spare parts from their own
inventory. They will come to realize that the
project will involve the whole company. If they don't
have a complete, integrated solution, they won't be
able to reduce any lead times or be efficient."
~ Anders Wilhelmsson, Senior Advisor, IFS AB
