AWM rolled to major business units in the Power sector

AWM, a completely Web based system, combines collaborative document management features with traditional project management features and workflow to create a focus-event based system. The system architecture will ultimately allow ALSTOM to scale this system worldwide. Luigi Dibisceglia, VP e-Business/IT of the Power Environment Sector says: “The introduction of the AWM within our project execution community signs a new era in the project control field. ALSTOM with its multiple cross country units will now have the capability to handle projects in a very friendly and organic way, as well as providing real time control of all activities needed to complete successfully events. The document management function embedded in the platform provides finally a perfect control of all documents generated and modified during execution.” “ALSTOM found the AWM platform the perfect generic collaborative instrument to control project with the best ratio price/quality and high friendly use. The platform has been extensively tested and validated by ALSTOM internal Information Technology Center. ALSTOM expect to reduce substantially the level of Cost per Quality, inefficiency and to improve project management standard workflow to reduce costs.” The system is being delivered to ALSTOM through an international partnership between Wisetek Srl headquartered in Milan, Italy, and Business Propulsion Systems Inc. headquartered in Toronto, Canada.
