October 2014: Isle of Man Upgrade Latest
Following a recent visit to our customer over in the Isle of Man, a big focus this week has been on the upgrade of their existing BMX software to AMX. The Isle of Man has a very unique set of parameters given that it is a self-governing British Crown dependency. Aside from the usual bridges and highways management options, AMX can also be used for other facilities and utilities on the island such as Control Systems, Ports, Linear Assets, Parks and Buildings. We're looking forward to helping the team get up to speed and implement usage across the whole of the island's government owned and managed assets.
