Case Study: Snowy Hydro Limited achieves 200 hours/month saved and 28% duplicate reduction with Accruent’s RedEye

How Snowy Hydro Boosted Operational Efficiency for their 16 Power Stations

Snowy Hydro, an Australian energy provider operating 16 power stations and over 5,500 MW of capacity, faced operational inefficiencies from decades of paper records and duplicated legacy asset data spread across multiple systems. Engineers, operators and contractors struggled to find the latest drawings and information quickly, raising safety risks and slowing maintenance and decision-making—prompting a push to centralize and digitize asset information as part of a wider digital transformation.

Snowy Hydro implemented RedEye to digitize and consolidate roughly 115,000 asset artifacts into a single, mobile-accessible source of truth used by more than 1,000 internal and contractor users. The project introduced new drawing standards and workflows, reduced duplicates by 28%, saved about 200 hours per month, and delivered payback in 20 months while improving data trust, contractor access, and operational safety.
