document control processes
One of the UK’s largest ferry operators faced a number of challenges with their existing Company Management System (CMS). Despite using a SharePoint site to manage critical documentation, the company struggled to make information easily accessible to all
employees in both online and offline environments. An audit deficiency on one of their vessels in 2020 prompted the need to remodel their CMS, with the aim of providing seamless data access and document management.
In response to the challenges the transport company faced with its CMS, Appetite was engaged to provide solutions to improve searchability, accessibility, and user experience. This included restructuring SharePoint, adopting Power Apps, PowerAutomate, and Power BI for automated document change requests, and developing a risk management module using Power BI.
As a result of the successful implementation of the solutions provided by Appetite, the transport company has significantly improved their CMS and document management processes. This has resulted in a more efficient and streamlined approach, providing employees with seamless access to documentation required to ensure the smooth operation of the business.
In addition to the direct benefits, the changes implemented by Appetite also produced a number of sustainability outcomes:
