Sword Ctspace Will Be Addressing NIRMA 2010 In Las Vegas, NV August 16, 2010
As one of few engineering software vendors with interoperable SaaS and on-premise versions in the form of its flagship Fusion products line.
- (1888PressRelease) August 14, 2010 - Brentford, UK - Sword CTSpace Products VP Tim Fleet will deliver a presentation on the successful cases, potential uses, and discernable limitations of SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) or internet-hosted information management solutions in nuclear builds at the NIRMA 2010 Conference in Summerlin,
Nevada. Mr. Fleet's 3:45 p.m. August 16th technical session titled, ¯Does the cloud have a role to play for information management in the nuclear new built era? will note the drastic improvements SaaS has on inter-project communication, at the same time addressing compliance concerns and on-premise IM alternatives.
On the subject of SaaS information management solutions, Mr. Fleet recently stated, ¯In the last five years or so there has been strong growth in the utilization of SaaS tools for document collaboration and exchange with suppliers and partners. In some industries this is almost becoming the norm for projects involving upfront feasibility and design processes for complex capital assets. It makes it easy to bring together a bunch of companies and automate business processes that would once have been very paper-intensive.
Aware that the nuclear industry has unique regulatory and security requirements, however, he added that SaaS or the Cloud ¯has a role but it is more limited than in other industries due to the unique security requirements. The cloud will most likely not be used in Nuclear to store key design and operational documents related to the plant design but it may well modernize old document control processes related to document exchange with suppliers and vendors."
As one of few solutions vendors with interoperable SaaS and on-premise versions in the form of its flagship Fusion products line, Sword CTSpace offers nuclear clients a secure and complete-lifecycle management solution-from design, through construction, and into operations and maintenance.
