Case Study: Vesuvius achieves improved data quality, collaboration and compliance with Pro-Sapien

How Vesuvius Leveraged Pro-Sapien for Enhanced Data, Collaboration, and Compliance

Vesuvius, a global leader in molten metal flow engineering, needed to replace a decades‑old Lotus Notes system with a flexible toolbox to handle Quality, Health, Safety, Environment and Sustainability (QHSES) reporting and operational needs. After reviewing options, Vesuvius selected Pro-Sapien for its SharePoint‑based integration, pre-built customizable modules (such as the action manager and complaints management) and user‑friendly layout.

Pro-Sapien worked with Vesuvius’s cross‑functional teams to deploy a SharePoint QHSES platform across ~50–60 manufacturing sites, training 1,500 users and integrating with master data and BI systems. The implementation cut error rates from about 1–2% in the first five months to roughly 0.5%, doubled the information captured in complaints reports, and delivered measurable improvements in data quality, transparency, collaboration and compliance reporting (supporting ISO work and detailed environmental/CO2 disclosures) — benefits Vesuvius attributes to Pro-Sapien.
