Case Study: Northumbrian Water, Ltd achieves faster safety inspections and regulatory compliance with Nintex Workflow Platform

Workflow automation keeps people and the planet healthier

Northumbrian Water, a major UK utility, needed to extend workflows to remote and underground sites and to contractors outside its enterprise network to better track chemical tank conditions, meet regulatory obligations, and improve worker safety. Previously the company relied on spreadsheets and paper forms that were hard to analyze and slow to act on, risking environmental harm, fines, and safety incidents.

Using Nintex Workflow for Office 365 with Nintex Forms and Nintex Mobile, business users rapidly built mobile surveys that upload to SharePoint Online, enabling prompt, accurate inspections and front-end analysis. The solution was developed in weeks rather than months, extended to contractors, strengthened safety checklists and culture, and helped Northumbrian Water address compliance, reduce risk, and avoid regulatory penalties.
