About this contract

The core suite of EA applications currently providing this functionality is the Asset Information Management System (AIMS). AIMS, which comprises several functional components, has to date been developed primarily to fulfil the business needs in Flood and Coastal Risk Management (FCRM). The primary goal of the AIMS Upgrade project is to replace the current asset maintenance planning elements (AIMS:Planning and the EAM Works App). In addition, a wider goal is to implement a new overall Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) solution. This would see rationalisation of AIMS:Inventory, and other components such as CMMS and Mobile applications, thereby resolving the convoluted integration currently in place.
