Requirements Planning & Purchasing

The extensive planning process that occurs before a company can execute their plans for construction involves collaboration between engineers and vendors about materials and products that are required. This process allows companies to plan for, view and purchase high volumes of material needed for the completion of the project. An online environment automates the planning and purchasing process, ensuring efficiency and reducing costs.

As part of a fully integrated Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system from Open Text, Web-based collaboration with owners, fabricators and service contractors streamlines the exchange of technical documents, reviews and approvals.

ECM solutions for Requirements Planning & Purchasing from Open Text deliver this functionality with the following components:

• Software: Document Management & Collaboration, Extensions for SAP® Solutions, Livelink ECM - CADManager for AutoCAD, Livelink ECM - CADManager for Microstation

Supplemented by Business Content (e.g., predefined workflows) to give you a head-start in configuring workstreams and processes, Consulting Services, Training and Support tailored to meet your requirements.
