Also to include source code of all non product utilities required for execution, installation or the building of these products for the current shipping version of eB (14.3.2SP1).  Also to include all user, system function, developer, support and training documentation.

14

Enhancements

Share Point Integration

This covers the integration of eB 14.4.2 document management functionality with that of Microsoft Office Share Point Server 2007.

Both Share Point and eB support the vaulting of physical document files, the association of defining or describing metadata for that document, check-in and check-out to provide exclusive modification access to that document file and the sequential versioning of the document file after modification and check-in.

It is required that eB effectively represents the Share Point concept of a document (file plus metadata). It is not required that Share Point be able to represent the much more sophisticated eB concept of a document with its attendant concepts of multiple files, copies etc.

The integration will have the following features:

·      Bi-directional synchronisation of physical document files between Share Point and eB to be triggered by creation, modification or deletion of the file in either system.

·      The recording of the previous state of a file before modification as a historic version available within both systems.

·      The exchange and synchronisation of key system metadata on file modification including:

·      Locking of a document checked out in or otherwise locked in either system

·      Version sequence number should support Share Point’s major/minor versioning scheme.

·      Date and time of modification

·      User identification

·      The Windows Authenticated user account will be used as a bridge between eB users and Share Point users. (I.e. no duplication or synchronization of users between eB and SP)

·      This Windows user account will be used for individual locking and creation of data

·      A working implementation for the synchronisation of custom document metadata between systems should be provided, together with the recording in each system of the appropriate audit trail for this modification of metadata. This should assume that appropriate fields already exist in both systems. It is not expected that a system be provided for the management of the metadata schemas across both systems.

15

Implementation of Engineering Tags in eB

This is a new fundamental type of object for eB that represents the design basis of functional location (Tag) or capability that is identified during the design of a facility, plant or vessel that will be fulfilled by a physical piece or collection of equipment (Asset).

·      A Tag feature will be added to the Software.

·      Tags are used as the subject of or are referred to in design, procurement, construction and operational documentation which in turn bear on the physical assets fulfilling, or able to fulfil the role of that Tag.

·      Tag Codes are globally unique. It will be possible to assign alternative numbers to tags that are unique in a specific context (like project or plant).

·      A tag can be classified.

·      During the design a tag may consist of a physical item or range of alternative items the choice of which might be further refined during design down to a specific supplier’s model of equipment.

·      A further transition to an actual serialised item will be allowed. This tracking of serials does not force a change to the Tag definition.

·      The Tag object will follow the conventions of other eB objects in relation to linking to and baselining associated documents.

Preparation for Re-branding

Preparatory work to allow AVEVA to remove externally visible references of eB and Spescom from the Software.

·      Blanking of all Spescom branded splash screens and icons.

·      Locating and neutralising any Spescom branding text or copyright text that is physically compiled into the product executables and externally visible to the user.

·      Visible installation utilities should be de-branded and changed to install to an AVEVA directory.

This is not intended to include changes to documentation or help text.

16

Office space

Office accommodation for up to 5 AVEVA personnel (2 offices 3 cubicles) will be reserved for AVEVA use from October 2006 through March 2007 for USD 1,500 per month.

Daily rate

USD 1,500 per day per software engineer

AVEVA staff will travel to Spescom’s office in San Diego, to take delivery of the CDROM/DVD.  Spescom will guide AVEVA in building all functioning executables comprising eB 14.3.2sp1 on AVEVA’S hardware and verifying its operation.
