London decongests transport contracts

14 July 2011

Asite has tied up a five year agreement with Transport for London and Greater London Authority for the use of its Contract Administration Management System

The agreement with Transport for London (TfL) is for the use of its collaborative Software as a Service technology (cSaaS). The deal sees TfL and the Greater London Authority (GLA) (including the Metropolitan Police, the London Development Agency and the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority), implementing Asite’s Software.

This will provide TfL and the GLA with a single integrated data management solution for all aspects of the contract administration process across their significant on-going portfolio of construction and facilities management works. TfL staff as well as their entire construction supply chain will use Asite’s Contract Administration applications to manage contract change and to provide real-time visibility of their actual schedule and cost position against budget. This will assist each of the participants in the supply chain delivering the TfL public works programme by providing further transparency across the complexities of the gamut of forms of contract in use in the field.

Tony Ryan, CEO of Asite said: “We will be providing TfL with a true SaaS Platform, with a government grade pedigree of security, compliance, and enterprise systems integration. Our Cloud Platform will give TfL the flexibility to deliver Contract Administration to their supply chain within their existing and proven processes. Asite cSaaS and AppBuilder offers TfL and every member of their supply chain the ability to interact with critical project information in their own way by providing each participant with the information they need when they need it."
