Case Study: Linde Group achieves harmonized, scalable document management and increased productivity with OpenText Documentum

Linde improves data management and productivity with OpenText

Linde plc, a global industrial gases and engineering company with about 80,000 employees, faced a massive paper and data-management challenge: millions of drawings, protocols and maintenance logs spread across binder-filled rooms and disparate systems. The company needed a scalable, reliable way to automate workflows, maintain data quality, support global collaboration and meet growing productivity demands.

Linde implemented OpenText Documentum, supported by OpenText Professional Services, to centralize content, automate transmittals and integrate with systems like SAP. The platform now serves roughly 7,000 users, handles millions of documents annually with no performance issues, delivered ROI within a few years, and provided harmonized, customizable workflows and a future‑proof foundation for ongoing digitization and global expansion.
