Setauket, New York & Bangalore, 
- February 07, 2007
- Aurigo Software technologies today announced that it has entered into a strategic
partnership with Microsoft to jointly offer solutions to the AEC industry. The solution
is a web based construction ERP Suite developed through integrating Aurigo BRIX,
Microsoft Project Server and Microsoft Dynamics AX. Infrastructure, Real Estate
and Facilities Management professionals can now gain access to a comprehensive 360
degree business automation solution that caters specifically to their vertical needs.
The solution helps streamline the construction process from land acquisition and
estimation to project fulfillment by connecting project sites, enterprise and supply
chains all on a single unified platform.
"When compared with other ERP solutions in the market place, we believe that the
Microsoft-Aurigo solution fits into a sweet spot where construction houses are demanding
higher scalability, dependability and cost effectiveness. What users also get is
software that is surprisingly friendly to use since it is based on the familiar
Microsoft Outlook user interface design", said Balaji Sreenivasan, CEO, Aurigo Software.
Aurigo and Microsoft have co-invested significant time and resources into building
seamless connectors between the three product suites. Most solutions in the market
deliver solutions rigid construction management workflows which offer little to
no flexibility, or enterprise resource planning solutions which need extensive customization.
The Aurigo-Microsoft joint offering solves this problem through BRIX providing the
complex construction management workflows spanning the critical processes of land
management, estimation, construction management, inspection and facility management.
Microsoft Dynamics AX provides the framework for a robust ERP solution bringing
the necessary Financial Management, CRM, Supply chain and HR automation abilities
to the combined solution offering.
Further, BRIX’s hot pluggable and dynamically loadable modules help for faster deployment
scenarios. Aurigo therefore has a jump-start advantage factor where the Aurigo-Microsoft
solution is already far down the road in terms of customer needs.
