Zephyr: A secure Internet-based process to streamline engineering procurements using the World Wide Web

摘要

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is piloting an Internet-based paperless process called 'Zephyr' to streamline engineering procurements. Major benefits have accrued by using Zephyr in reducing procurement time, speeding the engineering development cycle, facilitating industrial collaboration, and reducing overall costs. Programs at LLNL are benefiting by the efficiency introduced since implementing Zephyr's engineering and commerce on the Internet.
