Why switch between perl and awk? Stick to one:
Code:
awk -F"[()]" '{for (i=2; i<=NF; i+=2) printf "%s ", $i; printf RS}' file
BOS.FOS.T.CDG.MEDGTOC.01 CLENTT1 NOTFIXED YES Cargo dangerous goods queue CLCRGT1 BOS.FOS.T.CDG.MEDGTOC.01   
CLFOST1 CLENTT1 NOTFIXED YES Qmgr Alias for CLFOST1 Cluster   
RPT.PSS.T.VILS.ODY.01 CLENTT1 YES PSS MSGS TO VILS ODYSSEY CLITAT1 RPT.PSS.T.VILS.ODY.01

ppi::token::quote::double

PPI::Token::Quote::Double(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			      PPI::Token::Quote::Double(3)

NAME

       PPI::Token::Quote::Double - A standard "double quote" token

INHERITANCE

	 PPI::Token::Quote::Double
	 isa PPI::Token::Quote
	     isa PPI::Token
		 isa PPI::Element

DESCRIPTION

       A "PPI::Token::Quote::Double" object represents a double-quoted interpolating string.

       The string is treated as a single entity, PPI will not try to understand what is in the string during the parsing process.

METHODS

       There are several methods available for "PPI::Token::Quote::Double", beyond those provided by the parent PPI::Token::Quote, PPI::Token and
       PPI::Element classes.

       Got any ideas for methods? Submit a report to rt.cpan.org!

   interpolations
       The interpolations method checks to see if the double quote actually contains any interpolated variables.

       Returns true if the string contains interpolations, or false if not.

   simplify
       For various reasons, some people find themselves compelled to have their code in the simplest form possible.

       The "simply" method will turn a simple double-quoted string into the equivalent single-quoted string.

       If the double can be simplified, it will be modified in place and returned as a convenience, or returns false if the string cannot be
       simplified.
