Through the use of ASP.NET, a Microsoft tool, Invensys Avantis delivers the power and functional depth of traditional client-server desktop solutions with the low cost of deployment associated with web applications.

”Our Microsoft .NET approach is a natural progression for Avantis. It supports our Asset Intelligence strategy of enabling Avantis to deliver critical operational and decision support information across the enterprise. For our customers, this will enable more timely and accurate decision making,” said Michael Madrazo, vice president and general manager of Invensys Avantis. ”It is critical to select technologies and open standards that enable us to meet the business requirements of our diverse customers.
