AVEVA Instrumentation selected by AMEC

Cambridge, UK: AVEVA (LSE:AVV) announced the latest release of its new AVEVA Instrumentation product with the news that AMEC, a leading international engineering and project management company, has confirmed its adoption of AVEVA Instrumentation for Instrumentation and Control design and engineering for its Mining and Metals business in Canada.

AVEVA Instrumentation is the outcome of an important technology acquisition by AVEVA, announced on 30 March 2009. During its evaluation of the technology, AVEVA invited AMEC, a long-standing power user of AVEVA solutions, to provide an independent user's evaluation, comparing AVEVA Instrumentation with competitive products.

AMEC's Mining & Metals business invested in the new product as soon as it was released. AMEC have now deployed AVEVA Instrumentation on a number of projects, in conjunction with the integration of the existing AVEVA portfolio of applications.

The system offers fully customisable reporting options and interfacing, to enable efficient production of project deliverables. It offers efficiency and cost savings for project execution and error-free design for construction.

Commenting on this latest agreement with AMEC, Dave Gibson, AVEVA Instrumentation Project Manager, said: "We are delighted that they have chosen to invest in this new technology and look forward to working with them on this market-leading product."
