According to the latest announcement made by Infor, the company has signed a partnership deal with CAD Service which is a provider of CAD-led asset management software. Through the strategic partnership, Infor will integrate CAD Service's software with its Infor EAM application to deliver superior graphical representation of asset-related information to customers across the globe. Infor EAM OpenCAD will help customers to save time, improve processes and boost the effectiveness of asset management programs by allowing customers to view assets through the OpenCAD interface from within the Infor EAM application without the need to run a separate graphic tool.
"As organizations remain focussed on lowering costs, improving service levels and implementing green initiatives through best-in-class asset management, speed and responsiveness are fundamental. With this partnership, Infor EAM OpenCAD makes the tracking of asset usage, visualization of work areas and sourcing of information faster and easier. This more accessible, detailed visibility can increase asset reliability, reduce costs, lower-energy usage and support regulatory compliance while making the task much simpler for the user," said Kevin Price, Product Director, Infor EAM.
Infor EAM OpenCAD supports both DWG and DGN drawing formats so graphics can be accessed more immediately using the software’s integrated auto-discovery capabilities. Once incorporated into the system, modifications can be made easily without using AutoCAD or MicroStation. Swiss Banking Group Cornèr Banca uses Infor EAM OpenCAD to graphically view, analyze and navigate drawings and plans to create a GUI (graphical user interface) for asset activities and space management, crucially without the need to deploy separate CAD applications.
