Infor Asset Mangement Solution Tracks Energy Consumption

Infor has released Infor EAM Asset Sustainability Edition, an enterprise software solution that allows organizations to integrate energy consumption and emissions management into their asset management practices.

Infor EAM Asset Sustainability Edition automates the processes associated with managing assets and their related resource consumption. It tracks the consumption of individual assets in real-time, evaluates the data against user-defined conditions, and alerts users to anomalies when assets exceed acceptable performance thresholds. The solution also elevates decision-making by incorporating consumption and emission data into key performance indicators and reports. Program managers, for example, can generate reports that provide macro-level analysis of CO2 emissions and drill down into the performance of each asset through easy-to-use graphical dashboards.

The software also enables companies to benchmark the performance of a specific asset to determine the cost of maintaining it at current energy consumption levels versus replacing it with a newer, more energy efficient asset. This functionality enables organizations to make strategic decisions, factoring in energy consumption costs, the price and energy specifications of a replacement, and the projected return-on-investment date.

"There is no question that high energy costs are a drag on organizational budgets and that inefficient energy practices have a negative impact on our environment," said John Murphy, director of Industry & Product Marketing for Infor EAM solutions. "Infor EAM Asset Sustainability Edition is a groundbreaking solution that helps address these issues. With this solution, organizations can take a strategic approach to energy efficiency, using software automation to implement practices that promote sustainability and profitability."
