Tasmanian Irrigation Development Board go live with Zavanti ERP and Weblogics.

SYDNEY, Australia – November 15, 2009 – The Tasmanian Irrigation Development Board (TIDB) have gone live with Zavanti’s Construction Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Zavanti’s document collaboration and control solution based upon Weblogics’ products; Intralogic, EmailLogic and Blueprint.
TIDB selected Zavanti ERP in early 2009 after an open tender process, to manage all the activities for their 12 major projects with total infrastructure goals of $400m. The TIDB is tasked with the management to progress irrigation schemes from feasibility assessment through to the construction and operational stages to increase the irrigation supplies within Tasmania by 50%.
Since going live, the Zavanti ERP solutions provide the TIDB with a complete management solution from budgeting through to project completion. The solution allows TIDB to forecast expenditures out to 2019, whilst maintaining control of sub-contracts and cost commitments, also providing consolidated Board reports to ensure that the goals of the TIDB are being met.
Zavanti’s Weblogics solution allows the TIDB to manage all documentation, including Email traffic associated with projects, to ensure the security and control of information. Weblogics workflows are used to maintain all business processes associated with any project correspondence, guaranteeing traceability and security. Weblogics forms electronically allow users to submit requests and advices whilst version control of documents ensures all previous versions are accessible for comparison.
TIDB has successfully realised the value added by Zavanti ERP and Weblogics solutions, to better manage internal and external collaboration, streamlining their project and document management processes, and providing a communication platform for all project participants.
Ian Plater, Chairman of Zavanti said “This success confirms our strategy of providing a complete package of specialist solutions for the Real Estate and Construction industries ensuring that our clients obtain the highest return on their investment”.
