Triniti PSo – PPPM solution for optimised project, operational management


Triniti Business Solutions’ award-winning PSo toolset offers a real solution to companies’ project, programme and portfolio management (PPPM) and operational management challenges.



PSo is enabled as a cloud computing software as service (SaaS). PSo Web-based system encompasses the improvements in security, access and technology and delivers the power of a browser-based system, giving you the power of the Web with the value of a desktop application: one point of installation and maintenance.
Recent implementations were deployed using Microsoft SharePoint 2010, ASP.Net and Windows 8 token development. PSo is designed into logical functional units to allow you the option to select modules that apply to your business requirements, encompassing various PPPM methodologies.

Utilising Microsoft platforms such as Microsoft SharePoint 2010, PSo is flexible, scalable and designed to mitigate risk while increasing a company’s productivity, performance, delivery and profitability while improving tasks, activities and team collaboration.

PSo overcomes changing PPPM environment woes

The proverbial proof is in the pudding – Pso has, since its inception in 2006, delivered myriad tangible customer benefits across South Africa.

For instance, PSo enabled an enterprise customer to overcome the various challenges associated with a constantly changing project and operational environment, while consolidating various silos within the organisation.

Facing issues such as disparate methodologies, support process and skills, Triniti’s PSo had to overcome these issues while retaining the customer’s intellectual property (IP) and staff contingent.

Meeting the challenge head-on, Triniti Business Solutions implemented PSo’s operational and management controls using an integrated model to minimise risk. Furthermore, quality management standards are integrated throughout the organisation to prevent repetition.

Business intelligence relating to real status was made readily available. Also, BI and EI (enterprise intelligence) were integrated to provide information on resources, benefits and costs for effective planning and decision-making.

The overall PSo implementation was recognised through industry awards, accolades and nominations.
PSo benefits

PSo customers have consistently listed the following important benefits derived from their partnership with Triniti Business Solutions:
* Visibility - available across project processes and performance measurement.
* Integration - across all project management standards; all documentation; all human, material and equipment resources management.
* Alignment – from the feasibility phase throughout project until project close-out.
* Communication - 24/7 through reporting on project and strategic operations.
* Control of all versions of communication, reporting and document changes.
* Effective decision management.
* Empowered team members which lead to increased productivity.
* Delivery and result focused.
* Exact view of full project at all times.

CimQuest INGEAR NET.ABLINK 4.0 Provides Easy-to-Use Communication for Factory Floor Devices


CimQuest INGEAR, a leading supplier of runtime-free software development solutions for industrial applications, introduces its newest version of factory floor device communications software, NET.ABLINK 4.0. Providing a direct communication channel to Allen-Bradley programmable logic controllers, NET.ABLINK 4.0 delivers fast communications without the need for costly OPC servers.



INGEAR NET.ABLINK 4.0 allows users to develop their own Windows programs, system services, class libraries and ASP.NET solutions for automation and control applications without OPC constraints. Through the software, operators experience the following benefits:

    -Direct communication to Allen-Bradley programmable logic controllers using Ethernet, DH+, DH-485 or Serial DF1
    -Managed code specifically written to address the demands of writing HMI or data acquisition and control applications for Microsoft’s .NET Framework
    -Runtime free deployments without additional license fees
    -No third-party components, drivers, API’s or tools

“Unlike OPC, which is a middleware application that presents complex programming and challenging application compatibility, NET.ABLINK 4.0 is an embedded class that features a direct communications pipeline to the controller, making it easy to talk to your PLC—fast and without the overhead and recurring costs of OPC servers,” said Chuck Karwoski, President of CimQuest INGEAR.

Like all solutions in the INGEAR.NET software family, NET.ABLINK 4.0 is a runtime free class library that simplifies building, developing and deploying connected systems for manufacturing applications using Visual Basic .NET or Visual Studio C#. It uses only three primary classes of .NET code, which are used to manage the PLC, manage the data that are read from or written to the PLC and manage groupings of methods, properties and events to optimize read/write operations on a collection.

Applications developed with NET.ABLINK 4.0 can run on 64- and 32-bit Windows and Windows Server, Windows Compact Framework, Windows Mobile and Linux with Mono Framework. To provide users with flexible purchase options, NET.ABLINK 4.0 is offered in multiple editions, including Single Machine Edition, Developer Edition, Team Edition and Compact Framework Edition. An optional USB license key is also available to easily float development capabilities to runtime computers for field testing and debugging.

Napa: new programming model for Office 15


As part of its recent announcement of the new version of Office, Microsoft has introduced a new programming model for developing add-ins that combines web technologies and cloud services. The new model is designed to work with future versions of the Office productivity suite and with the SharePoint portal technology. The "Office 365 Development Tools" – code-named "Napa" – currently have "public preview" status and include a model for developing hosted apps that can, Microsoft says, be operated via SharePoint, Windows Azure and custom web servers. Developers will be able to market their apps and add-ins through the new Microsoft Store, as well as through their own companies' app catalogues.



Napa is available as a free development environment for SharePoint and is also referred to as the "online companion to Visual Studio", Microsoft's IDE. As it integrates into a browser, no further desktop installations appear to be required and developers can work directly in the browser. Supported formats include HTML, client-side ASP.NET (ASPX), CSS and JavaScript. Switching to the forthcoming Visual Studio 2012 is only required for more ambitious scenarios. Microsoft says that existing Office and SharePoint extension models such as VBA, COM, VSTO and SharePoint Solutions will work in parallel with Napa, although these models are unlikely to be available to install via the online store.

To start experimenting with Napa, developers must register for the Office 365 Developer Preview. This allows them to access a dedicated developer site with an instance of Office 365 that can be used as a basis for writing, installing and testing apps; developers can then use Napa as described in detail in Microsoft's documentation. An introduction to Napa with screenshots is also available in a blog post by Jason Zander, Corporate VP for the Visual Studio Team in Microsoft's Developer Division. Developers can keep up-to-date with future developments by following the company's new "Apps for Office and SharePoint Blog".

Telerik Sitefinity 5.1 Adds Native Support for ASP.NET MVC


New Release Offers Enhanced Tools for Developer Productivity, Plus Radically Redesigned Email Campaign Management for Marketers.



Telerik, an end-to-end provider of software application, lifecycle and content management solutions, today announced several key enhancements to its award-winning ASP.NET Content Management System (CMS), Sitefinity. These include full ASP.NET MVC and Razor support, as well as a redesigned email campaign management tool, continuing Telerik’s commitment to deliver the most advanced Web content management platform to developers, marketing end-users and IT managers, while maintaining an extreme focus on usability and productivity.

Native Support for ASP.NET MVC
In order to accommodate evolving trends in web development, the Sitefinity 5.1 release adds native support for the ASP.NET MVC web application framework, together with its Razor rendering engine. This framework mandates the separation of the three building blocks of an application – presentation (View), logic (Controller) and data (Model) – ensuring clean separation of concerns between application layers, making it easier for developers to organize and manage their apps.

ASP.NET MVC enables developers to completely control the markup of web pages, as the abstractions provided by the Control class are gone. With the explosion in popularity of JavaScript, client-side frameworks and AJAX, this developer control is increasingly critical.

With this release, Sitefinity also becomes the first CMS to let developers switch freely between Web Forms and MVC. Each Sitefinity page and template has 3 modes: Web Forms, MVC and hybrid mode - where MVC controllers and Web Forms controls can exist on the same page. These techniques can be mixed-and-matched within a single Sitefinity project, enabling existing projects to be gradually transitioned to MVC if desired.

Enhanced Tools to Increase Developer Productivity
The Sitefinity 5.1 release includes enhancements to Sitefinity Thunder, its Visual Studio plug-in that increases developer productivity. Using Sitefinity Thunder, developers can now work directly with their Sitefinity website through Visual Studio, enabling them to stay in the tool where they work, and centrally manage connections to all of their projects in one place.

With Sitefinity 5.1, developers can directly access and modify their website’s widget templates and, because these templates contain full IntelliSense-support, developers can spend more time coding and less time reading documentation. Furthermore, developers can fast-track their Sitefinity development by utilizing templates for widgets, widget designers, field controls, layouts and themes. This simplifies the process for developers to create a suite of Sitefinity extensions and then re-use these extensions in multiple projects.

Redesigned Email Campaign Management
The 5.1 release also adds a radically redesigned email Campaign Management Tool to help businesses meet their marketing objectives. The email tool enables marketers to effortlessly launch new email campaigns, then track the effectiveness of the campaign through detailed analytics. Each message can be personalized and then refined through sophisticated A/B testing. Furthermore, because these features are fully integrated into Sitefinity, companies can create effective email marketing that blends seamlessly with their other online marketing efforts.
