Australian Customs Service chooses AMPS from Eden Technology for new Logistics Information System
Announcement posted by Eden Technology 17 Jan 2006
Working as a partner with prime contractor Defence Maritime Services (DMS), Sydney-based Eden Technology has been selected to provide its Asset Management and Planning System (AMPS) software to support the logistics activities of eight Bay Class Patrol Vessels for the Australian Customs Service (Customs).
Eden will deliver AMPS to DMS and Customs as well as providing specialist consulting services to migrate all Customs legacy data into a consolidated shore logistics database.
AMPS will also be deployed aboard each Customs vessel to support its operational logistics activities. Each ships database will remain synchronised to the shore through the use of a series of intelligent electronic interfaces provided with the AMPS software suite. Crews will be able to rotate across all vessels and retain full data consistency across each vessel.
This will greatly improve data capture and quality, resulting in more streamlined logistics support operations.
DMS and Customs will have full remote access to AMPS from designated secure sites around Australia giving their users better access to logistics data and increasing their flexibility to be able to support the needs of the boats.
As a result of the award of this contract, AMPS is now the common logistics support tool for all surface ships protecting Australias borders, including the Royal Australian Navy. AMPS is also used throughout the Royal New Zealand Navy, and is being implemented on the Royal Malaysian Navy Patrol Boats.
Eden and DMS delivered a populated AMPS database to Customs in December 2005 for testing and validation with live rollout and deployment to each of the Customs vessels to commence early in 2006.
