a mantra

THE PROFIT GENERATOR

Business Infrastructure Management System

As companies create or expand manufacturing

facilities, deploy efficient processes, take on the

people who will operate them, and strategize

their way to the marketplace, their focus,

predictably is on bottomline results.

And rightly too. In the process they factor for

infrastructure costs and often pay scant

attention on how to bridle them.

Large organizations today have thousands of

employees at multiple locations.

To further increase the synergy they get from

their operations, they are accessing

technology solutions that reduce the complexity

of managing infrastructure. In the

process they improve operational

efficiencies and lower costs.

a-mantra is a web-enabled solution that puts

infrastructure management sharply in focus.

It enables decision-makers to access

information distributed across the company in

multiple layers, locations, hierarchies and

departments. With a few clicks on a keyboard.

Modular and flexible a-mantra facilitates greater

control on a company's resources; it curbs costs

through optimizing use of facilities.

Lowering infrastructure costs by 4% -

which a-mantra helps do, can impact

bottomline efficiency of a company

equivalent to a 25% increase in sales!

SatNav's Facilities Management System will

help us maintain our high standards as we

grow from strength to strength.
