NEW YORK, Nov. 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Infor, a leading provider of beautiful business applications specialized by industry and built for the cloud, today announced Technology Evaluation Centers (TEC) certified status for Infor Enterprise Asset Management (v11.3). Infor EAM is a cloud-enabled enterprise asset management solution that is designed to help improve asset performance, with rich built-in functionality and industry-specific editions. The solution uses predictive and preventive technologies to help extend asset life and increase efficiency. The application is now TEC certified in the category of computerized maintenance management system (CMMS)/enterprise asset management (EAM) solutions.

TEC certification helps verify a software product's ability to support certain real-world business processes. Per the CMMS/EAM certification report, "Infor EAM is a complete product offering that enables businesses to manage all asset management challenges—involving not just the management of assets, but also asset strategies, sustainability, and the business processes needed to support these challenges. The expanding ecosystem, including Infor's own platforms such as Ming.le, ION (Intelligent Open Network), and the recently added Infor Document Management and Infor IoT, as well as Infor's partners, extends the value proposition of Infor EAM."¹

In addition, four Infor EAM modules landed in the "Dominant Zone" in the TEC Focus Indicator, which presents the results of benchmarking Infor EAM against an industry average. "TEC calculates the industry average for a given software market space based on product data from real-world software solutions, scoring solution support for hundreds to thousands of features and functions.²" The Dominant Zone shows where the product supports more functionality than the average solution. Infor EAM has four modules which landed in the Dominant Zone: Maintenance Management, Integration, Financials, and Reliability.

Infor EAM can be deployed in the cloud, on premise, or as a hybrid solution, and is supported on various mobile devices, operating systems, and screen sizes to assist with on-the-fly fieldwork and informed, efficient decision making. Per the report, "…there are very few EAM/CMMS solutions on the market that have the depth and breadth of capabilities provided by Infor EAM."³

"In today's business environment, change is the only constant that organizations can rely on. Being able to keep pace with evolving customer demands and escalating pressures is paramount. Organizations need visibility, connectivity, and a dependable technology partner to help them navigate through it all," said Kevin Price, Infor EAM Technical Product Evangelist. "Being certified by TEC is a testament to the investment and innovation we have put behind Infor EAM to build a modern, scalable solution that our customers can trust to help streamline operations and help prime them for growth."
