Case Study: WestSide Corporation cuts engineering costs with Accruent EMS RedEye

WestSide Corporation slashes engineering costs by 16% with Accruent EMS

WestSide Corporation, an oil and gas producer, faced a significant challenge in managing over 220,000 engineering documents stored in multiple locations with numerous copies and outdated revisions. This disarray, combined with remote site locations, made it difficult for staff to access accurate drawings, leading to safety concerns and potential for costly rework. To address this, they turned to Accruent EMS and implemented its RedEye solution.

Accruent's RedEye provided a cloud-based platform that served as a single source of truth for all engineering documents. The solution included tools for deduplication, metadata tagging, and streamlined workflows. The results were substantial, with WestSide reporting a 16% annual reduction in engineering costs. This was achieved through a 12.5% productivity savings from reduced search times, a 3% saving from less travel, and a 1% saving from avoiding document recreation.
