Space is the Final Frontier at Carillion
| When
it comes to major construction projects, Carillion is in the forefront
as one of the UK’s leading support services and construction
companies, employing over 50,000 people across the world. With projects
of this size comes a paperwork mountain to match and the efficient
storage of all the drawings and information can provide an “Everest”
size headache.
It was just such a situation that Carillion
found themselves in. Several recently completed projects had generated
so much documentation that it required several rooms and two lock
ups to house! Even corridor shelves had been brought into service
to manage the amount of paperwork that a project of this scale creates.
|
| "Speed of collection
and of service were key due to the time constraints imposed by the
imminent office move." |
The decision was taken
to source an agency to manage the scanning of both the documents
and large scale drawings that were involved. After careful review,
Preview was selected as being the best able to deliver on all the
key elements required from an operational and organisational perspective.
Thoroughness and attention to detail, the ability to break the job
down prior to collection as well as a clear understanding of how
the job was to be presented were all of high importance. |
In addition, Preview offered the speed of collection and
service which allowed them to deliver within the time constraints that
Carillion were under due to an imminent move into new offices. Timing
was therefore key – to have taken all the documentation in paper
format would have added costs and time to the move, as well as requiring
additional space to accommodate it.
No need to worry - the scanning was completed successfully
and the move went ahead without the mountain of paperwork in tow.
Of course, the work does not end there. There are always
ongoing projects in different stages of completion at a company of the
size of Carillion. But, with the document scanning safely under control,
office space is no longer a barrier to having the right information safely
stored and available to the right people as and when they need it.
