CHALLENGES

No time or budget to create and maintain a bespoke solution
Physical paper and pencil documentation creates a lot of extra work, and is especially troublesome in harsh weather conditions
Sharing documentation across multiple proprietary platforms is time consuming and error inducing

Customers need faster access to inspection results to be able to plan better
Solution needs an API to integrate with customers
Application needs to enable Hydroscand to become a better service partner for customers.

How we solved the challenges together

RESULTS

Hydroscand saw that they needed a complex product to truly reap the benefits of digitising their business by implementing Hose Asset Management (HAM). Creating their own solution would have required years of large budgets and enormous effort to plan, create, implement and maintain, and a great result still wouldn't be guaranteed.

Instead they looked for existing products, and chose the Onix platform - an advanced system with a simple user interface which would be easy to adapt to their way of working.

Onix Work quickly became the spine of Hydroscand's global operations, increasing the efficiency of production and warehouse facilities, document management and safety inspections.

They now deliver products and inspection services with Onix Work as standard, allowing their customers to experience the same efficiency.

The next step in their Onix journey is using Onix Tags to label all 80 000 hoses they manufacture per week, ensuring that documentation is consistent from production line to end of life.
