Case Study: Versabar, Inc. achieves ISO 9001 certification and 97–98% process efficiency with Intelex Quality Management

Oil and Gas Solutions Provider Attains ISO 9001 Certification with Intelex Quality Management

Versabar, a global heavy‑lifting solutions provider for the oil and gas industry, needed to move from a paper‑based system to a configurable digital quality management solution to pursue ISO 9001 certification. Managing nonconformances, corrective actions and supplier information across multiple locations was slow and error‑prone, and the company required a central repository and a system they could tailor without ongoing vendor support.

Intelex’s Quality Management System was implemented with basic user training and a rollout focused on six core tasks, plus a central document repository and hands‑on configurability for Versabar’s Quality Director. The result: ISO 9001 certification achieved, efficiency of 97–98% (above the 95% target), cost of quality reduced from $18 to $11 per man‑hour, and NCRs increasing from 3/week on paper to 22/week (with expectations to reach 40–45/week), saving significant time and improving reporting and access to documentation.
