After a number of successful project applications during its first year,

CH2M-Hill announced that AFT Fath- om and AFT Arrow are now recom- mended on all process pipe projects.

AFT Fathom offers an advanced, drag- and-drop graphical interface for build- ing models of incompressible (i.e. liq- uid) flow in complex pipe network sys- tems. AFT Arrow models the more com- plex phenomenon of compressible (i.e. gas) flow in pipe networks.

New Monitoring System For

Rotating Plant, Machinery

Guardian from Icon Research is a fully featured system used for on-board monitoring of rotating plant and machinery, as well as measuring tem- peratures and pressures on-board. The system consists of an industrial network for gathering data and software for dis- playing plant condition and storing results. Guardian uses a color-coding system to show the status of each area containing sensors. For example, green means all clear, yellow is alert and red denotes an alarm. When an area shows up as yellow or red, a few clicks with the mouse will lead to the vibration analysis of the area and suggested corrective action to be undertaken. The system is designed to compliment planned main- tenance and allows the plant to be main- tained on the basis of its condition rather than age.

Evergreen Uses New Program

To Navigate Shipping Reform

Evergreen America Corp. has chosen to implement Rate Explorer, a suite of integrated tariff applications developed by Management Dynamics, Inc. (MDI), which meets the regulatory and com- mercial challenges carriers face with

U.S. shipping reform. "Carriers without a way to electroni- cally publish their tariffs via a user friendly Internet solution are now pressed to find a reliable resource," said

John W. Preuninger, managing direc- tor of Management Dynamics. The

May, 1999 other challenge carriers face is how to deal with an explosion in the number of confidential service contracts. Rate

Explorer can be deployed over privately leased lines or over the Internet. Man- agement Dynamics will customize Rate

Explorer to fit the unique needs of indi- vidual carriers.

Carriers using Rate Explorer can: • provide shippers access to an Inter- net-based retrieval system to search common tariff rates as well as entering requests for confidential contracts; • process high volumes of service contract rate requests with intelli- gent routings and messaging through a work flow manager; • auto publish service contracts and file applicable terms; calculate bottom-line charges from service contracts including the base ocean, inlands and assessorials in a single session; auto rate bookings and bills-of-lad- ing; track key performance indicators and provide management reporting.
