Keep Your People and Plant Safe
Document management is a life-critical standard.
- Harmonize as-built plant documentation with concurrent engineering projects to avoid costly mistakes
- Automate version control and have confidence in your data
- Find critical documents located anywhere within seconds
“Managing documents is a life-critical standard. If someone follows an out-of-date procedure or works from an unapproved version, it could result in people being harmed or killed.”

Find the right document fast

- Eliminate duplicates and complex file systems that drain productivity and cause expensive mistakes
- Leverage a central database to find documents fast, from anywhere
- Use full text or metadata search, or browse a flexible tree structure
Employees spend 1.8 hours every day—9.3 hours per week, on average—searching and gathering information.
Put another way, businesses hire 5 employees but only 4 show up to work; the fifth is off searching for answers, but not contributing any value.
