A key driver for this project is
the need for a comprehensive solution that enables AT to manage the complete
lifecycle of assets, including asset information.� At the heart of the
implementation is $19 billion worth of assets managed by AT across the Auckland
Region.� The Infor CloudSuite EAM
solution will provide AT with a modern asset information system to support
collaboration and an evidence-based culture of decision-making across all asset
classes and asset lifecycle phases to align with the ISO 55000 principles of
the International Organization for Standardization being adopted by Auckland
Transport.�
�
Going forward, the ability to use building
information modelling (BIM) supported tools and technologies and other spatial
attributes is also important to AT to enrich the user experience.� For the
citizens of Auckland, the new solution will replace numerous current siloed
systems and spreadsheets, providing improved service delivery by AT and better
value for money and life from its assets.�
"Auckland Transport is pleased to
partner with Infor, which emerged the winner in a very comprehensive tender
selection process," said Shane Ellison, chief executive officer, Auckland
Transport.�"We chose Infor for its deep industry expertise, innovative
culture and strong track record in asset-intensive implementations,
particularly in the transportation sector with reference names such as the MTAs
of New York and San Francisco.� The ultimate winner will be Auckland
citizens, who will enjoy increased customer service levels when the solution is
rolled out."
�
"Infor and
Auckland Transport share the same goals," said Helen Masters, senior vice
president and general manager, Infor Asia Pacific and Japan. "We put
customer-centricity first, and take pride in delivering a better
experience.� We are committed to partnering with AT to help enable the
organisation to better respond to the challenges of a
rapidly-growing city -- by combining modern asset management practice with
digital technology to improve both network performance and the customer
experience."
