Case Study: Kaneka Corporation achieves regulatory compliance and better asset control with BlueCielo Meridian from BlueCielo

Achieving Compliance and Control throughout the Asset Lifecycle at Kaneka

Kaneka Corporation, a global chemical manufacturer based in Osaka, Japan, needed a better way to manage critical asset information, engineering changes, and document ownership across its complex operations. Its legacy document systems made it difficult to maintain as-built integrity and support compliance requirements such as VLAREM, PED, and ATEX, so it turned to BlueCielo and BlueCielo Meridian for an asset lifecycle information management solution.

BlueCielo implemented BlueCielo Meridian with document management, secure vaulting, revision control, and workflow tools to manage as-built, project, and archived documents, plus SAP PM integration for direct access to technical information. The result was stronger regulatory compliance, better separation of master and work documents, and faster access to critical asset information—from several minutes down to seconds—while improving operational control and engineering change management.
