Challange:  Any engineering project
benefits from efficient processes, but that’s particularly true for
a minerals processing plant and infrastructure project, which
involves complex integration of expensive equipment that is
frequently deployed in remote locations. The wrong specifications
can result in incorrect materials and equipment being shipped to
site, construction delays, and budget blowouts.

That’s why GBM Minerals Engineering Consultants Limited needs to
keep careful track of its documentation and closely manage
transmittals-specific sets of version-controlled documents-sent to
clients. “We wanted to make it easier to interact with clients and
for our engineers to incorporate best practices into their work,”
recalls Joe Russell, Engineering Manager at GBM Minerals
Engineering Consultants Limited. 

GBM had been using a legacy system to handle its document
management, but the firm had grown beyond the system’s capacity.
Plus, GBM’s engineers and document controllers had to take
cumbersome steps to enter their drawings, specifications,
spreadsheets, and other important documents into the
system. 

Benefits and Outcomes:  By implementing
Nintex Workflow, GBM has increased engineering productivity while
minimizing risk. “With Nintex Workflow, we’ve reduced our workload,
improved our accuracy around document control, and increased our
clients’ satisfaction,” says Russell. “The document control process
is now part of the way that we work, rather than an additional
overhead.”

Benefits:

• Reduced risk

• Enhanced customer satisfaction

• Increased employee efficiency

• Flexibility for future modifications
• Lower total costs
