Transport for Greater Manchester Makes Travel Easier with Infor EAM
Infor recently announced that Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) has selected Infor Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) on a SaaS (software as a service) basis. TfGM is a a local government body responsible for delivering Greater Manchester’s transport strategy and commitments. This new collaboration will be supported by Infor partner Sapphire Systems and is expected to deliver the company a full return on investment (ROI) within five years. TfGM has a diverse asset portfolio, including the UK’s largest light rail network Metrolink, 24 bus interchanges, 12,500 bus stops and 4,300 bus shelters, and a network that hosts more than 5.6 million journeys daily. The company aims to have a more consistent asset management system in place so passengers can access transport facilities when they need them, and those facilities are maintained to a good standard at an affordable cost. Infor EAM will support this aim by allowing TfGM to capture fault details more accurately, issue works faster and complete repairs quicker, as well as make earlier payments to contractors. Mentioned in the press release, the system will be configured to cover a diverse range of functions from buildings and equipment maintenance, to vehicle management and servicing, through to property management and disposals, and will integrate with supplier and financial systems.
