Case Study: Roy Hill achieves 90% document control efficiency and streamlined engineering asset management with OpenText Extended ECM

Roy Hill transforms enterprise and engineering asset information management with OpenText solutions

Roy Hill, the largest single iron ore mine in Australia producing 55 million tonnes a year and employing over 2,000 people, struggled to find and manage critical content across its integrated mine, rail and port operations. Without a comprehensive enterprise content management system, staff could not reliably access millions of documents and 80,000 engineering drawings, hampering approvals, collaboration and operational efficiency—issues made more urgent by tight shipping limits that demand maximum internal productivity.

Roy Hill implemented the OpenText Extended ECM Platform—including Extended ECM for Engineering and Extended ECM for SAP—creating a single, integrated repository with configurable workflows and SAP/ESRI integration. The solution accelerated approvals, improved document control and safety by ensuring a single source of truth, drove 80% user adoption, boosted document control team efficiency by 90%, and reduced costs by decommissioning legacy systems.
