Integrated Project and Asset Lifecycle Management
The IFS construction, engineering, and infrastructure solution has a world-class project lifecycle (PLM) and asset management software (EAM)—a combination rarely found in one integrated software solution. If you also have an offsite manufacturing facility, then IFS can provide a project-based manufacturing solution for this business unit as well.
All of the above main business processes are integrated with a common set of supporting modules including finance, human resources, document management, procurement, supply chain and subcontract management, quality and health and safety, plant and equipment hire and rental. IFS understands the importance of cost control through all stage of the asset’s life.
The trend in the industry is to move to a TOTEX model (Capex + Opex). IFS has one integrated solution that covers the management of capital projects, and the operations and maintenance of the asset. This makes the management of TOTEX very simple with one set of numbers.
The world-class project cost control solution allows monthly project cost reviews to be managed in an integrated way without the need to use lots of Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheets. It supports both a work and cost breakdown structure model.
