SINGAPORE, AUGUST 20, 2008 – The Singapore flyer (picture) just got a new spin—but it won’t be visible to the naked eye.

The world’s largest Giant Observation Wheel, located at Marina Bay, has implemented Infor FMS SunSystems to manage its financials.

According to Infor, the financial management system was selected based on the solution’s deep functionality, ability to integrate with key business systems and single, integrated ledger capabilities. It has already been implemented at more than 18,000 global sites.

“The solution offers intuitive interfaces, powerful reporting capabilities and real-time visibility into business performance,” said a company source.

The Flyer also selected Infor PM Query and Analysis which provides integrated decision analysis to Infor FMS SunSystems and flexible reporting capabilities.

The software will enable Singapore Flyer to easily analyze its business performance from multiple user perspectives, from the executive summary level to detailed base transactions, the company said.

I knew Patrick Mcmahon at Melchers in 1993-1998 and he used to tell us these crazy stories about how he was going to build the world's biggest farris wheel right here in Singapore. We thought he was nuts but there he was in the newspaper 5 years later launching the bloody project! I really goes to show you that you should give up a dream if you really believe in a project.
