Technology

XML Technology - Extensible Markup Language (XML) is essentially the universal language of the Internet -- a cross platform industry standard for storing and transmitting text and data both on an off the Web. XML is robust and non-proprietary. The use of XML technology makes eRPortal easier to integrate with other web-based systems.

SQL Server - eRPortal is built with SQL Server, a highly efficient and robust data management and analysis platform that helps eRPortal deliver increased scalability, availability, and security.

Mobile - To support the needs of the mobile workforce, eRPortal offers system access using hand-held portable devices. Combining asset management functionality with mobile technology, eRPortal allows employees to access, capture, and manage information from their job site, storeroom or off-site warehouse -- resulting in higher productivity and more effective decision-making.

Barcoding & RFID – eRPortal offers barcoding and serialization technology, a highly effective way to reduce manual processes, while providing increased mobility and system functionality. When MRO goods inventory is barcoded, tracking inventory and taking cycle counts is much easier and more accurate. Barcoding and serializing assets also significantly streamline asset tracking and relocation. Barcoded employee ID cards can also be used to enable employees to log their actions quickly, especially when issuing assets (e.g. rental/loaner tools) or MRO goods. Barcoding also facilitates accounts chargeback.

Web-enabled – As a native web-based solution, eRPortal can be accessed by authorized personnel from any standard Internet browser at any time, reducing network traffic and eliminating expensive hardware purchases.
