The following diagram depicts the product
architecture and the various methods of
deployment that are available:
FMMS compliments Corporate ERP Systems by
utilizing a library of interface procedures in order
to access data that resides outside of the core
application. A number of such interface libraries
have already been built by KDR for existing
customers with the predominant ones enabling
bi-directional access with ERPS such as SAP,
Oracle Financials and Mincom.
In addition, this approach has been adopted to
interface to in-house products built by FMMS
customers and to a wide range of external
product types, including Condition Monitoring,
S CADA, Configuration Management, GIS,
Supply Logistics and Project Management.

Does your Organisation have geographically
dispersed Workshops?
Working closely with Australian blue chip railway
operators, KDR solved the problem of effectively
maintaining mobile assets over geographically
dispersed workshops.
Are Linear Assets difficult to identify and
maintain?
FMMS boasts a unique solution to asset
identification in relation to linear assets like
railway lines, channels and power-lines. Vi s u a l
display of GPS locations for linear assets has
resulted in economic benefits hereto unheard of
for owners of such assets.
Are you concerned about Eliminating
Materials Losses?
The FMMS bar-coding functionality manages
uncontrolled, unmanned materials stores. The
easy to use, wireless, bar-code based stores
issuing system, enhances materials tracking,
thereby eliminating materials losses.
Are Safety Issues Important to you?
Modifications to Assets for test purposes can lead
to safety issues should the maintainer not be
aware of the modification. FMMS Facility Alert
