Financial Software Solution/System

This is a sub-heading near the start of this document. Could this be referring to the fact that the software is "in the operating phase" or could it just be referring to how the software works.

Any other suggestions would be very welcome.


"[Software Name] en funcionamiento

[Product Name] es una solución tecnológica de última generación, desarrollada por XXX y sus socios tecnológicos, para organizar, gestionar y automatizar los cálculos y el reporting de [Software Name], con el fin de aportar gobierno, control, validación y transparencia a dichos procesos."

Thanks Helena. Yes, I wasn't sure that it was announcing the fact that the software is in operation or whether it's just referring to an explanation of how the software works. It's a bit ambiguous.
Helena Chavarria May 3, 2016:
I understand it to mean what the software does when it's working, i.e. up and running.

up and running
› If something, ​especially a ​system or a ​machine, is up and ​running it is ​operating:

in operation

(Softwarename) in operation / at work / up and running.
NB: "Up and running" doesn't always fit smoothly into the text, but I think it could work here as a sub-heading.

A Google search for "software in operation" gets over 300,000 hits... and "software up and running" gets over 46,000.
Note from asker:
Thanks Neil. I think that "in operation" works in the context.
