News Points
Infor's EAM Enterprise Edition is a widely deployed, web‐architected, and technically advanced enterprise asset management and facilities management system.
It combines best‐in‐class asset management modules, unique features for improving operations and performance, and advanced modules to ensure the best possible fit for a customer's asset management needs.
Offering superior technology with a modular design, Infor EAM helps companies manage capital assets with unprecedented efficiency.
With Infor EAM, the King Hamad University Hospital Biomedical and Facilities Management teams can take action to optimize asset performance and make better long‐term business decisions. They are also able to simply extract asset history information to develop projections on equipment uptime and maintenance costs. This information can be used for strategic business planning and for taking corrective action.
The KHUH management will also be able to compare costs and performance across multiple site areas and identify specific asset anomalies within single sites that are impairing performance.
Coupled to this, Infor EAM's solution also provides the ability to define key performance indicators to give executives "at a glance" information on asset and engineering performance - whether equipment is repaired in‐house or outsourced.
Adding to the core capabilities of Asset Management, Infor EAM adds Cognos to the solution, one of the best Business Intelligence tools on the market.
