ACCESSIBLE DOCUMENT CONTROL BOOSTS CONNECTIVITY

Tractabel explored InEight based on recommendations from trusted partners. "We found that InEight Document is more user-friendly for the kind of projects we are performing,” Marchand says.

One of Tractebel’s key goals in adopting InEight Document was to shift the team’s mindset about how they worked – not just a software change but an entire transformation. That move paid off: accessibility and collaboration have improved significantly since migrating to InEight Document.

“Previously, accessing our in-house system was possible for contractors but was not an easy thing to do,” explains McGillivray-Ahmidan, Document Management System Single Point of Contact at Tractebel.

This headache led to growing issues within the subcontracting companies. Eventually, Tractebel’s team resorted to taking on the tasks of uploading, data input, management and communication – which was extremely labor intensive, McGillivray-Ahmidan points out.

Now they’re able to juggle dozens of projects live in InEight Document at one time with many collaborators on each project working in real time, including external contractors.

“Using a system that is easily and securely accessed by more than one party at the same time has truly been the biggest benefit,” McGillivray-Ahmidan says.
