Case Study: Sekisui Chemical achieves real-time document visibility and faster dispute resolution with Oracle Aconex

Sekisui Chemical builds CPVC manufacturing plant with Aconex

Sekisui Chemical built a US$50 million CPVC resin plant in Rayong, Thailand to produce 30,000 metric tons annually, a complex project with miles of piping, thousands of valves and strict engineering requirements. As the company’s first plant outside Japan built by a local contractor, the project required seamless collaboration among 10 major contractors and numerous subcontractors, immediate access to documents and correspondence from any location, and a move away from reliance on emails, logs and spreadsheets to monitor reviews.

The team implemented Oracle Aconex to store all project information securely in the cloud, track thousands of drawings, RFIs and change orders, and enable fast metadata-driven searches and a single version of the truth. This delivered real-time visibility into document reviews and changes, rapid identification of schedule bottlenecks, hours‑ or days‑worth of time and cost savings resolving disputes, and quick project setup and on-site training.
