ENGIE (former Cofely GDF-SUEZ)

900 out of total 1700 Dutch professionals working for ENGIE (former Cofely GDF-Suez) will work with OpenIMS. The technological service provider for industries implemented OpenIMS DMS of OpenSesame ICT in the South-East region and unrolls it now throughout all of South-Netherlands.

038b06d_322_322Hans van Ewijk manages the Document Management System and knows the benefits like no other: ,,The cost of failure are much lower in comparison to an environment with disk drives and heavy email traffic. In OpenIMS people never work in wrong versions of a document. This is not only financially but also legally of great importance for the organization.”

Merger
Further enrolling OpenIMS in the larger area was opportune because of the merger of four companies. ,,Their former four support departments now service the whole of the Southern Netherlands, within one structure and out of one vision. The South-East region was the precursor with OpenIMS, de other three regions did not have a DMS at their disposal. They will all have the same tools available, which will take some time to adjust. It’s not easy to change the way you work. To stop thinking in folders when searching and saving and to start thinking in metadata. Experience shows however that once they adjusted, they don’t want to change back.”

,,OpenIMS will primarily be used to manage projects and contracts. A calculator who worked mostly in the Maastricht area, now works throughout all of Southern Netherlands. A large benefit of OpenIMS DMS is that he can drive his car to Maastricht as he used to and work from there.”
