MicroMain XM with RFID Wins Award from Plant Engineering
(February 15, 2005) AUSTIN, TX — MicroMain Corporation, a leading provider of asset and facility management software and services, today announced that it received the 2004 Product of the Year Award from Plant Engineering Magazine. MicroMain XM ™ with RFID won the Silver Award in the General and Maintenance Software category.
The Plant Engineering Product of the Year Awards honor the most innovative and useful products introduced to the industrial plant engineering market each year. Initial competition entries are screened by a panel of plant engineers, with finalists nominated in 15 plant engineering categories.
"Plant Engineering’s readers choose the winners in our annual Product of the Year award program,” said Bob Vavra, Editor of Plant Engineering Magazine. “For seventeen years, manufacturers have been anxious to be nominated and proud to win. Our readers know best when it comes to the products that make their work easier, better and more productive.”
MicroMain XM with RFID was developed by MicroMain and Cathexis Innovations, Inc., a global leader in asset management technologies headquartered in St. John’s, Newfoundland Canada. In this version, MicroMain’s flagship CMMS utilizes handheld devices to read and record asset information using RFID.
“MicroMain is proud to receive this prestigious Product of the Year Award,” said Pat Conroy, President of MicroMain. “We thank Cathexis, in particular, for its critical role in bringing this product to market.
“We are also very pleased to see that plant engineers recognize the value of RFID technology in manufacturing, including their maintenance operations,” he added. “ RFID offers a new way for plant engineers to streamline and improve their maintenance management, particularly in inspections, equipment histories, and asset tracking.”
MicroMain will receive its award at a special reception during the National Plant Engineering & Facilities Management Show co-located with the National Manufacturing Week Show in Chicago. MicroMain XM with RFID will also be featured in a special awards section in the April issue of Plant Engineering Magazine.
