IDBS’ E-WorkBook has been implemented by Solvay, an advanced materials and speciality chemicals company, as part of a digital transformation project that has removed paper-based processes across the organisation.
The E-WorkBook platform was rolled out to over 1,500 users across 30 global sites and 80 labs, helping Solvay improve data capture, analysis and reporting across its global R&I activities.
Christian Marcazzo, General Manager at IDBS, said: 'We are delighted to have helped Solvay’s R&I teams. This project shows the real power of both our E-WorkBook platform and our deep-domain expertise. With more than 2,200 employees, operating in 21 major R&I centres worldwide, Solvay needed a vendor with the knowledge and technical ability to deploy an enterprise platform on a global scale. E-WorkBook’s ability to help manage the huge amount of data and knowledge generated by Solvay’s teams, wherever they are located in the world, means Solvay will continue to benefit from our platform for years to come.'
Julien Antier, Solvay IS Program Manager, said: 'We decided on the IDBS E-WorkBook platform because our due diligence had shown it to be very powerful, flexible and user-friendly. There was an immediate operational benefit in the labs with the IDBS E-WorkBook platform. Each project wave was delivered on time and on budget, thanks to the common project methodology and the high expertise of IDBS, resulting in smooth worldwide implementation.'
Due to the success of the project, Solvay is looking to add E-WorkBook Advance workflows, alongside Chemistry and Inventory management capabilities, to the platform to support more sophisticated use cases.
