With the ongoing implementation of the LHC and past experience with building
the LEP, the need for CERN to use a comprehensive Contracts Follow
Up software for managing CERN Purchase Procedures is fully acknowldeged
and has indeed become critical.
To answer those needs, CFU, has designed and
implemented by AIS.
The main objectives for using wide a CFU software
CERN wide are:
- to allow all divisions,services involved in a contract
to share and exploit comprehensive and coherent data at all stages in
a contracts life;
- to allow the monitoring a contract lifecycle, from
the initial divisional request to the contract post-mortem;
- to provide to budget holders a comrehensive view
of all financial data related to the contract;
- to ease the flow of communication of contract related
data between all services and divisions involved;
- to provide easy access to all documents related
to a contract;
- to help all parties involved to follow contract
related procedures;
