MANAMA: Bahrain's Civil Aviation Affairs (CAA) is overhauling its work processes with the implementation of a new enterprise asset management solution.

The Infor EAM Enterprise Edition will be used in its air navigation and engineering and maintenance department, it was announced yesterday.

It is expected to provide better management and proactive servicing of more than 10,000 assets - enabling the integration of various sub-departments existing in multiple locations.

CAA expects to benefit from reduced maintenance costs and man-hours spent on inspecting the safety of equipment.

It will also reduce the downtime and inventory costs, as there will be automatic updates on inventory requirements.

The solution was chosen following a selection process to replace distributed maintenance environments with a central software solution.

Infor offers capabilities that cover every aspect of the asset management lifecycle - maintenance, equipment, inventory management and contracts covering department assets.

"The four key pillars that support many successful companies are its cash, inventory, people and fixed assets," said Infor channel manager EMEA for Infor Enterprise Asset Management, Claude-Henri Weiller.

"Infor's solutions provide companies like CAA with the capabilities to effectively manage these critical parts of their business, while freeing up valuable resources to focus on enhancing the quality of their customer service."

Zayani Computers is the Bahrain-based implementation partner.
