Problems We Help Solve

Providing actionable roadmaps for manageable improvements

Companies will often face certain symptoms of systemic information management inefficiencies. These symptoms may appear in one, or in many different areas of information, documentation, and data production and consumption.

Below are some of those symptoms that our clients experience. These are the company challenges that we work to resolve using full stack services.

Corporate Governance Information

Policies, Standard Operating Procedures, and other documents intended to guide the organization and its personnel are:

• Outdated and untrustworthy or the wrong version is found

• Not centrally stored across business units and functions

• Difficult to find or search for rendering the information lost

• Not continually update with knowledge transfer and succession

Project Information and Data

Projects often have a difficult time managing and tracking information that occurs throughout the execution of a project:

• Inability to track deliverables against stage gates or milestones

• RFIs during the construction phase are not tied to updates of drawings and data

• Inconsistency of design approach, methodologies, and level and structure of project information across project sizes and types

• Lack of KPI reporting or PIMS for Project data

Engineering and Design Information

Externally created or supplier engineering and design information and internally created information is unstructured resulting in:

• Difficulty in managing revisions to design information and complex files (such as reference files)

• Lack of control over duplication of data, drawings, and efforts

• Inefficient review processes or a lack of concurrent engineering protocols

• Wasted efforts on models that are not maintained

Asset Information and Data

Maintenance and Operations have a difficult time accessing up to date or complete information and data regarding assets and components if:

• Expectations for information needed is not set out at the start of, or during, a project's execution

• Changes to a facility or plant are not captured in the documentation and data that is modified on a project

• Digital asset standards, live asset data, project changes, and operations and maintenance efforts are disjointed

Software Applications and Ecosystem

Without strategic guidance and cross business unit implementation, a myriad of platforms are used to perform the same functionality:

• Multiple instances of similar software are deployed with configuration specific to each project or business unit

• Licensing and sustainment costs are extensive

• Software applications are often not configured to for functional needs resulting in disappointing results or additional applications deployed

• IT has difficulties managing multiple erroneous tools
