The Value of Meridian Engineering Document Management Software

Backed by over 20 years of unmatched industry expertise, Meridian’s engineering document management solution can help you consolidate tools and overcome recurring pain points that come with using legacy solutions or generic document management systems.

Efficient Engineering Change Management and Document Control

Engineering documentation can be tough to manage. It’s often unstructured, spread across various systems, difficult to trust due to constant change, and needed by many departments at once. Accruent Meridian software brings greater efficiency to document management with its ability to track parallel changes, streamline concurrent engineering, and keep your engineering projects under control.  

Comprehensive Management to Optimise All Operations

Meridian’s engineering document management system can help optimise facilities, operations, maintenance, and asset lifecycle information management. Access to a centralised repository allows you complete control over all critical assets, facility, and engineering documentation, including complex technical manuals, computer-aided design (CAD) drawings, project files, and more.

MERIDIAN-Benefits-Comprehensive-Management

Keep Your Teams Safe

Ensure employee safety by giving them what they need to make the right decisions. Meridian’s centralised repository will always provide instant access to the most up-to-date Master documentation, which is especially critical when responding to an asset or plant emergency.

Cultivate Collaboration

Use Meridian’s accessible, centralised, and transparent information to help every department in your business and beyond — including engineering, maintenance & operations, capital projects, IT, and external contractors — bust silos, streamline collaboration, close the loop, and get the job done.

Reduce the Cost of Breakdowns and Downtime  

Avoid asset failures and plant shutdowns by always having the most accurate engineering information. Meridian ensures more effective and efficient routine and unplanned maintenance for greater business continuity, asset uptime, and a decrease in labour costs.  It also mitigates risk so you can avoid health and safety incidents.

Scales for the Enterprise

Global teams thrive as Meridian’s engineering document management software supports the entire enterprise versus just one plant or location. And no project is too complex or the number of files or amount of data too small. Meridian scales for the enterprise with its ability to manage hundreds of thousands of interrelated documents, drawings, and information throughout its entire document lifecycle.

Powerful EDMS Features to Transform Your Operations

Master Document Management

Meridian EDMS provides a centralised repository for asset-related engineering documents associated with functional locations, equipment, and work orders, along with multiple ways to search for all types of critical documents, drawings, and associated assets. With a few clicks, maintenance teams will have all the information necessary to complete the job efficiently in less time. Maintenance teams can also communicate important feedback to engineering by adding comments or redlining a PDF rendition.

Controlled Digital Workflows & Concurrent Engineering

MERIDIAN-Capabilities-Controlled-Digital-Workflows

Control document changes with robust workflow capabilities that allow users to pass through pre-defined review and approval steps. It can even handle concurrent engineering by establishing multiple workflows in various projects. This helps ensure all the boxes are checked by maintaining compliance, eliminating confusion and human error, and increasing productivity.

Mobile Capabilities

Allow employees to quickly access mission-critical information on the go, remotely, or in multiple places at once from any device. A mobile user can find docs needed via a QR scan, functional location, asset tag, or any other logical identifiers. Meridian Mobile expedites project and maintenance execution and increases overall operational efficiency while preventing costly errors and accidents.

Clear Audit Trail for Simplified Compliance

Accruent engineering document management software provides a clear and accurate audit trail by centralising documentation and ensuring compliance to change management standards. This includes asset life information, electronic print stamps, watermarks, signatures, and a detailed document history that can reduce risk, help maintain document security, and simplify compliance processes.

What Sets Meridian EDMS Apart

Comprehensive and Agnostic CAD Management

Meridian EDMS is purpose-built to allow users to store, maintain, and update interrelated or interdependent computer-aided design (CAD) files, building Information management (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 and when.

Computerised Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) Integrations

Even with a robust CMMS platform, critical documentation — such as complex engineering documents, facility documentation, CAD drawings, and technical documents — often can’t be readily accessed or updated due to unavailability or constant change. Connecting Meridian to your computerised maintenance management system can help you access all your crucial information and share field-related changes with document owners.

Controlled External Document Exchange

Teams often have challenges with medium-to-large internal projects and shared company resources. 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 the engineering project scope and budget. Accruent 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 software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering lets you take advantage of all the benefits of the Cloud. It removes on-premises hardware, software, and infrastructure costs. In addition, it provides all the maintenance, support, upgrades, and patches you’ll need. Upgrades are provided quarterly, and all users are invited to suggest application improvements. Offloading system operations and maintenance reduce IT maintenance and labour costs by more than 50% compared to on-premises systems.

Regulatory Compliance 

If you need engineering document management in a regulated environment, explore how Meridian Cloud for Life Sciences can help you transition to a validated EDMS in the Cloud and ensure compliance, quality, and safety.

Data Quality & Integrity

Meridian provides built-in consistency checks for mandatory metadata, missing reference files, and content availability. Automatic document rendering improves the collaboration and embedded review and approval process.
