Ocean International Suppliers, Inc, an international supplier of super alloys has recently implemented an electronic document management solution provided by DocuVantage to streamline operations in a highly competitive international environment and to obtain their ISO 9002 certification, opening doors to supply to the worlds leaders in the oil and gas industries.

DocuVantage, a Winter Haven-based company, is a systems integrator specializing in the analysis, design and implementation of electronic document management and workflow systems (EDMS). Part of the original programming team in the development of Optix ® - a suite of EDMS products, DocuVantage has a long history as pioneers in the document management industry. Their clients include Hillsborough County Fleet Management, Bechtel, partnered with the US Department of Energy – Nevada Site Operations, Nextel’s Technology Lab, to name a few.

Ocean International supplies alloys such as duplex stainless steel and titanium for many uses such as the construction of oil rigs and chemical plants worldwide. The many grades of alloys all require stringent verification processes and each item is manufactured with its own specification sheet that must be retained, traceable and included with every shipment.

Delivering to producers of oil and gas worldwide, Ocean International was at a disadvantage not being ISO certified. ISO, a series of quality standards set by the International Organization for Standardization, is the most widely used quality management system in the world. ISO requires strict management of documentation, something Ocean International was controlling manually until implementing the EDMS.

When asked what other benefits they have received in implementing the system, Anne Bokneberg, president of Ocean International says: “DocuVantage’s Workflow product allowed us to identify redundant processes in our daily operations and to free up time for our employees to do more productive work than handling paper all day. Our goal is to maximize output from each employee and we have significantly improved performance without adding people to our overhead, keeping us lean, mean and competitive,” she smiles.

Another benefit, Bokneberg notes, is the secure storage of documents. “Who can forget the millions of papers floating in the air after the Trade Center catastrophe?” she says. Weather in Florida, however, poses the largest threat and with electronic imaging, offsite storage means a company can safeguard irreplaceable documents – the lack of which could put a company out of business…

“Central Florida is moving into the hi-tech arena with large strides” says Jana Wiggins, president of DocuVantage. “Assisting Ocean International – who by the way were awarded International Company of the Year by CFDC – further sharpening their competitive edge, has been a pleasure and it is great to see Central Florida on the map in the hi-tech energy industry.”

Document Advantage Corporation Docuvantage was established in 1998 in Winter Haven by Jana Wiggins, President and Dave Wiggins, Vice President. Their Optix® suite includes the Optix® platform for rapid deployment, Optix® Workflow; a GUI-based route editor, Optix® Web; secure browser-based access, Optix® Text Search and Optix® COLD. DocuVantage and its clients have enjoyed a 100% success rate in their implementations.
