The nation’s leading general builder selects Prolog Converge

FOLSOM, Calif. (June 16, 2011)—  Meridian Systems, the Plan-Build-Operate technology solutions leader for project-based organizations, announced today that Turner Construction Company has selected to add Prolog^®Converge, a rich Web-based user interface and powerful Web services platform, to their Prolog^{software solution. Turner will use Prolog Converge to provide detailed document tracking, reporting and an easy way for the company to collaborate with its business partners and clients.}

Turner standardized on Prolog software for a centralized deployment approach in 2002. The company recently selected Prolog Converge to help project teams collaborate more efficiently, and to offer its users flexibility in accessing and managing critical project data. 

“The ability to use Web services to integrate Prolog Converge with other major software platforms was a significant requirement of our IT strategy,” says Micky Doner, vice president and CIO of Turner. “As we implement a new ERP system, Prolog Converge enables over 7,500 internal and external Prolog users to continue to use the functionality of Prolog they are familiar with. The ability to integrate these solutions seamlessly for the end user means fewer re-training and adoption issues while also reducing costs associated with running the system for Turner, our business partners and clients.”
