Meridian Systems' Proliance Infrastructure Lifecycle Management (ILM) application allows infrastructure-intensive organizations to optimize the Plan-Build-Operate project lifecycle for complicated capital projects, construction and real estate programs, as well as extensive facility portfolios, according to the vendor. The enterprise-class software manages all capital projects, programs and facilities on one system.
As a Web-based program, Proliance delivers improved coordination between corporate goals and the real estate and facility groups that act on and meet these targets. Since all data is contained within a single system, it eliminates multiple point solutions, thereby reducing IT and training costs, and it improves time-to-market for new products and services, the vendor noted.
Proliance consists of several integrated modules.
Project Portfolio Management, which is mainly used during the planning and building phase, lets users manage a project's scope, schedules, budgets and contracts.
Facility Management helps users operate and manage physical assets, maintenance management and service request items.
The Business Intelligence module gives senior executives and authorized managers visibility into an organization's entire portfolio of projects, programs and facilities using key performance indicators, dashboards and roll-up reporting, according to Meridian.
For its part, the Business Process Management component lets businesses create, enforce and automate best practices and processes enterprise-wide.
