We have reduced our information management expenditure by five percent.”— Edward Van Den Boogaard, Group Leader, Document Management
To safeguard and improve control of infrastructure documents and process-related information, Huntsman decided to implement a comprehensive engineering information management solution. This system had to manage both digital information and existing, archived documents.
With the Meridian solution and integration with SAP PM, the company’s asset-related technical information is readily available to maintenance engineers, contractors, and CAD designers. Meridian automatically keeps track of digital files that are checked in and checked out of its secure vault, ensuring that no document is lost or damaged. After making remarks or redlines to documents, change projects can be initiated and data exchanged with contractors according to clear procedures.
“Through the time and resources saved in search and retrieval and document processing, we are enjoying a new operational efficiency and very low mitigation costs.”
Meridian allows Huntsman’s engineering information to be created, stored, and managed during the different stages in the asset lifecycle. Today, hundreds of engineers at multiple locations work with Meridian daily. This has resulted in rapid response times in finding, accessing and changing drawings in instances when plant modifications are needed. The solution also helps Huntsman to manage, monitor, and control document exchange between the plant’s engineers and outside contractors, which reduces errors and facilitates faster changes.
