Use Comprehensive Documentation to Optimize All Operations
Powerful EDMS Features to Transform Your Operations
Controlled Digital Workflows
Control document change with engineering document control capabilities that allow users to pass through pre-defined review and approval steps to make any change. This helps maintain compliance, control change, prevent human error and ensure that all boxes are checked.
Electronic Print Stamps and Watermarks
Every time you view, modify or print a GMP document in Meridian, a print stamp and watermark will be automatically generated by the system on each PDF rendering of the document to provide key timing information. This can help ensure that you never have to worry about having the “correct version” in your hands and that your team will always have the latest and most up-to-date version.
Electronic Signatures
When a GMP document is put into a workflow, it must pass through a series of reviews and checks. As each user reviews or approves the document, their digital signature is manifested on the PDF rendition of the document in the order they signed. These workflows not only help ensure that the right people review and approve the document but also simplify document management and build the immutable audit trail.
Clear Audit Trail
By centralizing documentation and ensuring compliance to change management standards, Meridian provides a clear and accurate audit trail — including asset life information and detailed document history — that can reduce risk, help maintain document security and simplify compliance processes.
Work Order Management
Meridian provides a single source of engineering truth for all documents related to a work order, along with multiple ways to search for all types of critical documents, drawings and associated assets. A user can find docs needed via Tag scan, location, asset name and many other logical identifiers. With a few clicks, maintenance teams will have all the information necessary to complete the job efficiently with fewer man-hours.

What Sets Meridian Apart
Comprehensive CAD Management
Meridian EDMS is purpose-built to allow users to store, maintain and update interrelated or interdependent CAD files, BIM models, drawings, schematics and other documentation. This – along with features like digital workflows, audit trails and a defined feedback process – can help all users simplify compliance and understand who made decisions, when.
CMMS and ERP Integrations
Even with a robust CMMS platform, there’s often critical documentation – like complex engineering documents, facility documentation, CAD drawings and technical documents – that can’t be readily accessed or updated due to unavailability or constant change. Connecting Meridian to your CMMS system can help you easily access all your critical information and share field-related changes to document owners with ease.
Controlled External Document Exchange
Your teams often have challenges with medium-to-large internal projects and with shared inter-company resources on projects. Documents are often lost during the back-and-forth internal review cycle, and it can be difficult to collaborate effectively with external vendors and maintain engineering project scope. Meridian simplifies project document change and external sharing using a controlled digital process – both to and from contractors and Company shared services. It also eliminates the need to use uncontrolled or unsanctioned tools such as Dropbox, network drives, email or FTP sites.
Lower IT Burden
Meridian’s optional SaaS offering provides all the maintenance, support, upgrades and patches you’ll need. Upgrades are provided quarterly, and all users are actively invited to suggest improvements in the application. Offloading system design and maintenance in this way reduces your internal IT maintenance and labor costs by more than 50% when compared to on-premises systems.
