Premier Oil increases efficiency and safety compliance with the Nintex Platform

Who They Are

Premier Oil is a leading FTSE 250 listed, independent exploration and production company. They have oil and gas interests in the North Sea, South East Asia, Pakistan, the Falkland Islands, Africa, and Brazil.

What they need

Premier Oil needed to reduce the complexity and inefficiency of their existing document management process while improving document security.

How they did it

Nintex Advanced Workflow and Modern Forms for SharePoint automate the generation of request forms, documents, document numbers, notifications, approvals, and tracking. The Nintex mobile app gives remote workers access to job-related documents from their mobile devices.

Protecting information while speeding data retrieval process

Premier Oil Vietnam employs up to 100 contractors and vendors in its offshore operations. It is important that these engineers, line workers, painters, and divers can access Premier Oil documents related to their job functions wherever they are.

Premier Oil knew there was room to improve their slow and unnecessarily complex document management processes. They also needed to secure proprietary information since many workers were employed by vendor and contracting firms. They contracted IT partner Appvity to overhaul the existing system.

Document permissions give Premier Oil greater control

Appvity tapped into Nintex Advanced Workflow for Sharepoint. Mobile forms customized for Premier Oil allow remote workers to access the information they need from their mobile devices, while establishing document-level security to protect proprietary information.

The new system now automatically generates document tracking numbers, which improves filing, retrieval, and document control. The new workflow allows managers to check where a document is in any given process, and who has accessed a specific version.

“In the past, simple approvals often took two business days, now the same outcome rarely takes more than a couple of hours,” says Binh Nguyen, Technical Program Manager, Appvity.

Nintex Advanced Workflow for SharePoint frees up time for higher value tasks—and that’s a win for Premier Oil.

Customer Testimonials

For me, a real selling point about the Nintex solution is its ability to set and change permissions for every document flowing through the system.

Our attempts to mitigate Power Automate’s limitations by inserting reminders and notifications to the user like, ‘Hey, this instance is about to expire. Do something with it,’ didn’t always work. So, instance failure rate was the metric that we wanted to change. With Nintex, the 20% failure rate we experienced in Power Automate dropped significantly.

My new form tool is Nintex. Period. All my development is in Nintex, and I no longer have to touch InfoPath. In fact, when I need a new update to an InfoPath form, I just rebuild it in Nintex.

Business users are creating their own automated workflows and forms using Nintex by themselves, to meet their requirements. The central IT team is not a blockage for business improvement, and that is good for the future of our company.

I got into firefighting and riding this ambulance to help people, not to fill out all this paperwork and make sure government regulations are met. With Nintex, that part of my job has been minimized so that I can back to the part that I do enjoy.

Without a doubt, at Auswide Bank, we believe our size and our scale is an advantage. So we can find solutions to problems and implement them, such as Nintex and Process Manager. And we can actually be far more nimble, far more innovative than those larger organizations.
