Asite Information Sharing In a Secure and Flexible Cloud Environment

There was a time when vendors developed software systems to manage paper based documents. Later, technology evolved and developers created a system which could manage electronic documents—to track, manage and store digital documents. The world is moving towards a paperless society. Alongside there has also been an increase in the amount of data that is handled; and also a huge betterment in available technology. "This has resulted in a secure and efficient system to store and retrieve documents," elucidates Tony Ryan, CEO, Asite.

The company provides a unique business operating system that supports a wide range of business-to-business processes with a focus on file sharing, information management, procurement & project management. It automates processes that promotes more efficient interaction and better communication between businesses.

All of these factors together, have contributed towards making document management system one of the fastest developing management systems in the current century. But the problem arises when the documents and data needed for the supply chain is being held in silos. “If a person leaves his/her laptop on a train and the data is stored locally and doesn’t have a back up, the individual deals with several challenges—can that laptop be recovered? Can you easily replicate the data lost? Was it proprietary and what is the cost of that lost data if it gets into the wrong hands?” says Ryan. Companies need to streamline and standardize the way they store and share information. An increasing number of organizations are looking to get away from self-hosted solutions, and move towards the cloud. “The challenge with that is ensuring the safety of data, and making it accessible to them who require it when they need it. They also need to be able to share that information securely, often with an audittrail and workflows,” says Ryan. Asite’s Adoddle delivers a CDE(Common Data Environment) to satisfy the document information management needs of any organization easily in a secure, hosted platform that’s configurable to meet the individualized needs of the world’s most demanding organizations.

“Adoddle is not just about data management, it's about Big Data. The software handles everything from Concept to Completion & Beyond (C2C&B). It communicates to existing systems and reports across the board,” explains Ryan. The platform hosts a powerful tool, called AppBuilder which creates expense systems in minutes or cost management systems in hours that are hosted in Adoddle. The tool offers endless operation opportunities which allow organizations to concentrate only on their business.

BAA, one of the British construction industries largest and most demanding clients, commissioned Asite to provide a collaboration solution that could be used throughout the company as well as providing a central repository for BAA information. A key part of the challenge was to monitor and quantify the real cost savings of using collaboration tools. To do this, Asite worked with BAA to develop benchmarking/KPI's. "We delivered significant time and cost benefits to BAA's projects, typically reducing out-turn costs by 2 percent,"says Ryan. "To stay ahead of the pack we provide the entire platform–C2C&B and will continue to look forward, keep listening and delivering the best solutions," concludes Ryan.
