When the paper is piling up… when you can’t find the drawings you’re looking for… when you’re struggling to share the information on a project… STRUMIS is there to lend a helping hand.

For any project in the Steel Fabrication Industry, there is huge amount of data involved and hence data management becomes imperative. We estimate that every part or component in the Steel Factory will have over 10 pieces of documents including heat / cast references, material certificates, part drawings, assembly drawings, mill origin certificates, inspection reports, NC / CNC files and much more.

To manage this yourself is an enormous task, and can lead to an incredible amount of paper being used; which can be easily lost or misplaced.

Documents stored in STRUMIS provide evidence of documents under control. Failing to comply can cause fines, the loss of business, or damage to a business’ reputation.

The following are important aspects of document control within STRUMIS

• Reviewing and approving documents prior to release
• Reviews and approvals
• Ensuring changes and revisions are clearly identified
• Ensuring that relevant versions of applicable documents are available at their “points of use”
• Ensuring that documents remain legible and identifiable
• Ensuring that external documents (such as customer-supplied documents or supplier manuals) are identified and controlled
• Preventing “unintended” use of obsolete documents

STRUMIS is not simply a tool that lets a user manage, access, track and edit information stored, along with it numerous features for Steel Fabrication management it completely eliminates the requirement for a separate data / document management software. The document management module within STRUMIS acts like an electronic cabinet that can be used to organise all paper and digital files for multiple projects being handled by the Steel Fabricator. You can combine paper to digital files and store it into a single hub after it is scanned and digital formats get imported. Web based document management software are becoming the staple of the industry and also a norm in many countries.

With STRUMIS, the fabricator has the advantage of sharing the required documents with consultants, customers and also within the team internally. As all the documents are stored on the server and not individual’s PC, it can be accessed via any computer on the network with an authorised login ID and password. There are restrictions and rules that can be set by the administrator for the documents that can be seen, edited, shared based on the designation, role and rights granted to that particular user.
