Dockwise, a global leader in maritime transport and offshore engineering, needed a structured, user-friendly platform to manage its engineering documentation across multiple international offices.
To meet this need, we designed and implemented a custom SharePoint Online portal tailored for the engineering department. The solution included:
- A centralized portal with clean navigation and access control, limited to engineers and designated super users.
- Automated document classification and routing using SharePoint’s Content Organizer, ensuring that uploaded files are instantly dispatched to the correct library based on document type.
- Powerful search functionality with custom scopes and refiners to help users quickly locate the right documents.
- Metadata-driven organization with standardized content types, views, and structured libraries for various categories like engineering, operations, assets, and software models.
The portal improved document discoverability, ensured consistency across teams, and replaced scattered local storage with a single, well-governed platform.
