Case Study: Yarra Valley Water improves asset data access and efficiency with Accruent EMS

Yarra Valley Water saves $2.5M in design costs with Accruent EMS

Yarra Valley Water, a major Victorian water corporation, faced significant challenges with an outdated drawing management system. Their legacy system could not effectively handle native CAD files from contractors, leading to reliance on PDFs, lost files, security risks, and the need to frequently redraft designs, which incurred substantial costs. To address this, they partnered with vendor Accruent to implement its RedEye solution.

Accruent's RedEye became the single source of truth for Yarra Valley Water's engineering drawings and data. The solution centralized asset information, drastically reducing search times and enabling over 7,000 monthly document searches. It helped eliminate 5% of duplicate documents and enforced higher quality standards from contractors. This shift has saved an estimated $2.5 million in design costs and is foundational for the customer's future digital initiatives.
