Columbus Application Provider completes development of a FN Light tool to manage space, maintenance and schematic connectivity

FN Light to enable a quick start for organizations with less than perfect drawings

February 1^st , 2008 - New Jersey, USA - Columbus Application Provider (http://www.clmb.net/), a leading developer of software solutions for facilities management announced today the completion of a FN Light tool to fill the gap for organizations which have good data about their assets, locations, maintenance procedures and even connectivity, but lack good drawings to complete the picture.

FN Light will enable managing this information using existing FN tools, including the ability to display logical connectivity and hierarchy.

At a later phase, when drawings become available, even partially, they can be added to complete the picture.

Additional modules can be added as the organization goes along.
