Metito (U.A.E) plans
to implement WRENCH for Engineering data management: World leader in water treatment systems chose to update WRENCH as
its primary I.T. infrastructure for project monitoring and Engineering data management.
Since 1958, Metito (U.A.E) has earned a
reputation for excellence in the design and supply of water / wastewater treatment and water desalination systems. With a highly-trained
staff of over 800 professionals, Metito's approach combines theoretical expertise with the practical experience of an engineering and
contracting company.
From ‘document management' to project, quality, process and Engineering data
management. Some time earlier Metito had invested in the popular EDMS software Documentum in a bid to capture and
hopefully be able to reuse project information like drawings and other documentation. Going by the example of many other
engineering companies who had also installed this s/w, Metito went ahead and got Documentum, and thus were reluctant to explore the
new solution WRENCH. However, the WRENCH team managed to make a demo to a senior team at Metito, who were so impressed by
the process-driven approach of WRENCH EPC that they were willing to evaluate further, even though at the time had already decided to
invest in another software called Mclaren (which had a workflow module) to run on top of Documentum.
Evaluating with
reference customers and pilot implementation Metito's Quality manager and Project manager visited 5 WRENCH EPC
customer sites, and speaking directly to the end users and implementation team at these sites, gave a very positive report back to the
management. They decided to go ahead with a WRENCH pilot implementation, which was a great success, and got positive response
from Metito's consultant partners also.
Roll out The consultant recommended that WRENCH be
implemented across the entire organization to improve reduce cycle time and ensure quality. WRENCH was then rolled out across all
Metito's offices, starting from their head office in UAE and in Qatar, India, cairo and Manila.
Results Along with faster cycle time and assured quality, Metito was able to Streamline the entire product process from inquiry - to -
delivery, with special attention to enquiry processing. Tackle manpower constraints by automating workflows, make quality control
foolproof and non-tamperable.
Khatib
and Alami(U.A.E), is the biggest Architectural Engineering and
project management companies in the middle east region, with a reputation for creating some of world's largest and most unique
buildings in the world, including the very prestigious Jeballi Airport (one of the largest cargo airport in the world).
Khatib and
Alami (U.A.E), ranked among the top 50 International Engineering firms in the world, turns to WRENCH as I.T partner for faster
engineering, quality compliance assurance, and enhanced productivity. K&A to implement WRENCH-EPC on one of the largest
infrastructure project (SHAMS Abu Dhabi - US$3 Billion) and soon to extend it to all its projects.
K&A is located in 12
countries and has projects are in the field of infrastructure, District and city waste management system, Transportation (Roads, bridges,
Airports), Oil and gas engineering in collaboration with ARAMCO (Saudhi Arabia), GIS etc.,
Manual process, insufficient
support from existing I.T threatens continued growth To support its rapid growth, K&A had put together a file-based
system and identified a document controller in each location to upload and download file from a common FTP server. The challenge of
this system was there was a lot of manual labour and huge dependency on the document controllers. This combined with the many
bottlenecks, delays and challenges inherent in any manual-driven working environment made K&T decide to opt for a more robust
and comprehensive I.T. system that could offer proven business value for real-world requirements.
After checking out the
various solutions available in the market, K&A chose WRENCH based on its strong track record and good domain
expertise.
Results K&A is extremely happy with the results it has seen so far from WRENCH.
WRENCH-EPC is now being rolled out across all the other office locations and all project handled by K&A. WRENCH-EPC is also
being implemented for in the Infrastructure, Oil and Gas, Transportation and GIS business of K&A.
Simon Carves (UK) one of the Global Engineering Leader
has partnered with WRENCH to set up an integrated I.T. infrastructure across its offices worldwide for managing global turnkey
projects. With the implementation of WRENCH, Simon Carves will have total control of all projects across multiple locations.
Distributed project teams can work as a single 'virtual' team online, without depending on FTP or email to share information,
collaborate, release to site or monitor work. WRENCH will be rolled out at Simon Carves' UK, India and Singapore offices during a 16
week period. (The Punj Lloyd group also has standardized on WRENCH as its in-house IT infrastructure.)
