AVEVA Extends AVEVA NET Portal Further in Plant Operations
AVEVA announced the immediate availability of the latest release of AVEVA NET Portal. This significant update responds to direct customer feedback by incorporating features that improve the collaboration, security and usability of the product, further closing the gap between disparate systems and the need for an ‘integrated operations' working environment.
AVEVA NET Portal, an integral part of AVEVA NET, the web-based, information management solution already trusted by customers worldwide, now benefits from tools that enhance collaboration yielding time and cost savings by breaking down the ‘silos' that have traditionally developed across different systems within plant operating environments.
This has been achieved by adding universal markup capability for all 2D and 3D documents managed by the system. These comments can be used, for example, in the creation of maintenance work packs to indicate areas or items requiring physical inspection for safety checks. Mark ups are associated with the original document and stored within the central database becoming accessible to those granted access to them.
"Based on customer feedback we're seeing a greater sense of urgency towards integrated operations, the ability to use information across the business, reducing risk and helping plants remain safe and meet regulatory compliance. By making data available wherever and whenever it is required, regardless of which programs created the data in the first place, AVEVA NET helps meet this imperative," commented Dave Coppin, Executive Vice President, AVEVA NET Solutions.
Derek Middlemas, Group Operations Director at AVEVA, commented: "AVEVA NET fits closely with our customers' requirement for ‘integrated operations'; where information is made available, and the tools are always there to view it, share it, collaborate on it and add value to it, so that risk is greatly reduced. This is a huge issue in an industry where the emphasis on safety and accountability is growing every day."
