Amey Selects ARES PRISM Software for Earned Value Management & Reporting

Amey, a leading infrastructure services and engineering company, has chosen ARES PRISM project management software to help manage their major rail project in Wales. Amey is currently working on the Core Valley Lines transformation project, part of the South Wales Metro for Transport for Wales.

After evaluating other project tools on the market and how they would work and integrate with their existing systems, Amey selected ARES PRISM project controls software in order to implement effective earned value management, streamline processes with their contractors, and improve reporting.

Simon Rhoden, Infrastructure Services Director at Amey, said: “We needed a robust solution to support us to project manage the transformation of the South Wales Metro. It’s a complex project with many independencies between Amey’s design and operational teams, as well as with our supply chain and partners. ARES PRISM should enhance our visibility and control of the programme to upgrade the network, and improve rail services and reliability for local people.”
