McLaren Software Previews the Approval of Engineering Work Packs via Microsoft Outlook at EMC Momentum Athens
McLaren Task Services Extends the reach of engineering document management processes
Glasgow, Scotland (4 November 2009)
McLaren Software, leaders in asset documentation and change
process applications will be demonstrating the latest release of
Enterprise EngineerTM and previewing McLaren Task
Services for OutlookTM at the EMC Momentum Conference in
Athens, Greece.
McLaren Task Services for Outlook has been designed to widen the
number of users able to participate in a formal engineering
approval process adding greater integrity and validation to both
project or asset documentation. In-built predefined
business rules and electronic signatures ensure all actions and
comments are captured automatically providing visibility into the
approval task via Enterprise EngineerTM reports.
Approval tasks appear in the Outlook inbox and the user is
guided through approval processes by an intuitive McLaren ribbon
bar. Without leaving Outlook the user is able to view and
approve, delegate for approval and comment on multiple documents
within the approval pack including engineering (CAD) Drawings.
The approval package and all associated documentation remain
under the control of Enterprise Engineer and are held in the
supporting ECM repository ensuring the security of the
documentation. Built in viewing technology allows users to view a
range of document formats without launching the original authoring
application.
Representatives from Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam will be
presenting how they have extended their investment in
DocumentumTM by deploying Enterprise
EngineerTM for the management of all their terminal real
estate drawings and associated project documentation. Schiphol's
use of Enterprise Engineer has allowed them to formalise and
improve their communication with third party contractors resulting
in faster engineering project execution and reduced rework
costs.
