Case Study: BESIX achieves a 290% productivity increase with Oracle Construction and Engineering

The Royal Atlantis Resort & Residences Reported a 290% Productivity Increase in Document Control Review Cycles

BESIX, a United Arab Emirates-based contractor, faced major challenges on The Royal Atlantis Resort & Residences in Dubai, including inconsistent information between the client and main contractor, inefficient collaboration across systems, and a QA/QC team overwhelmed by manual logging, printing, tracking, and scanning of 10,000 Work Inspection Requests per year. Oracle Construction and Engineering, using Aconex, was brought in to help streamline project document control and review processes.

Oracle Construction and Engineering implemented configurable workflows, a central cloud-based system, and standardized naming and numbering conventions to create a single source of truth for all project stakeholders. The results included a 290% productivity increase in document control review cycles, 100% accuracy in the Engineers Instructions register, and 70% more QA/QC items processed per month, rising from 1,000 to over 3,500, while also freeing three document controllers from administrative work.
