Trinity Press Release
Trinity Technologies Announces New Service to Benchmark the Effectiveness of Automation
Asks Process Industry Companies, ”Are Your Company’s Information Technology Investments Returning Value? How Do You Know?”
Bentley International User Conference, Philadelphia, Pa. — September 30, 1999 — Trinity Technologies Corporation, announced today its new Information Asset Benchmarking Service™ for chemical, pharmaceuticals, forest product, and power companies. The service helps companies assess their level of automation relative to other companies in the industry, determines the value of the company’s current technology investments, and highlights new opportunities technology can provide.
”Over the past 25 years, process and power companies have spent untold amounts of money on hardware and software to increase productivity and accuracy, speed communication, manage documents, and many other initiatives,” says Jason Dunn, program manager at Trinity Technologies. “The fact is, most companies cannot assess how these technologies have performed to make them more competitive and effective. The Information Asset Benchmarking Service can make the value more clear.” The service will relate the quantity of automation to productivity, quality, and effectiveness metrics such as design reuse, access to data across the plant life cycle, cost of engineering, impact on design and constructive rework, and more. The group will assess the state-of-the-art in automation for planning, design, construction, operations, and maintenance and show its impact on business value.
For all companies that participate in the study, Trinity will provide a comparative assessment against industry averages and Best Practices, a lessons learned database, and access to its Information Asset Best Practices Network. The network will encourage discussion of technologies and work processes and enable members to exchange information, post questions and answers, and conduct online discussions.
Interested companies are urged to contact Trinity Technologies by telephone at 703-444-0974 or at info@trinitytechnologies.com.
