THE PORT OF ANTWERP COMPANIES DRIVING DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN MANUFACTURING

15 · 3 · 2019

As a technology company, we have a front-row seat to the trailblazing work our clients are doing to drive digital transformation. Thanks to their ambitious mindset, TenForce is reaching out to the farthest corners of the world.

More than 250 production sites across the globe rely on us when leaving legacy systems behind to adopt a modern EHS digital platform. Each time, our work starts with a meeting in the Port of Antwerp.

Here’s how our clients are striving to expand not only their horizons but those of their peers too.

 

Inovyn

 

An Ineos company, In­ovyn Belgium set off adopt­ing Ten­Force In­ci­dent and Ac­tion Man­age­ment mod­ules, to move away from their legacy Lotus Notes applications. Later, the Man­age­ment of Change mod­ule in­te­grated nat­u­rally in the sys­tem. Now em­ploy­ees from all lev­els in the com­pany use the mod­ules on a day-to-day ba­sis, en­joy­ing the ben­e­fits of a mod­ern scal­able EHS plat­form.

Following the successful example, production sites in Italy and Germany adopted the TenForce solution and the United Kingdom will soon follow. Read more.

“Ten­Force’s spe­cial­ists have a very good un­der­stand­ing of the in­dus­try. Dur­ing the im­ple­men­ta­tion of the In­ci­dents Man­age­ment, Ac­tion Man­age­ment and Man­age­ment of Change mod­ules, we did an in­ter­nal au­dit to es­tab­lish the nor­mal processes in our or­ga­ni­za­tion and then Ten­Force took the lead and worked it all out.” 

Dirk Gyzels, HSEQ and Fa­cil­ity Man­ager In­ovyn Man­u­fac­tur­ing Bel­gium

 

Monument Chemical

As a result of their continuous growth, flexibility demanded by the market and ever increasing regulations, Monument Chemical ramped up their business strategy to standardize and centralize their operations across the globe. They chose TenForce as their digital platform to manage change, incidents and actions follow-up.

Today the company uses TenForce for all production sites in Antwerp (Belgium), Brandenburg (Kentucky), Houston (Texas), Baytown (Texas), and Bayport (Texas). Read more.

“Transparency has definitely increased. The follow up of actions that need to be taken due to incidents or audits became much more structured. Each action is now easily tracked, without falling through the cracks.”

 Peter Jacobs, EH&S Delivery Leader, Monument Chemical

 

Gunvor Petroleum

Following in the footsteps of Gunvor Petroleum Antwerp and Gunvor Petroleum Rotterdam, Gunvor Refinery Ingolstadt is currently using TenForce as their end-to-end software solution to report and monitor incidents, track actions and manage risk.

The project’s scope includes three main areas: HAZOPs, standalone risks, and workplace risk assessment, for which they used old, custom-built stand-alone applications. TenForce now covers all the production sites in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany.

 

Ineos Phenol

Starting last year, Ineos Phenol decided for TenForce as their digital platform to improve their compliance processes (such as their CAPEX approval process), previously covered by custom Lotus Notes and Excel or Access applications.

Today, employees ranging from the technical level to the executive suite use the solution across all Ineos Phenol sites in Belgium, Germany, the United States, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. Next, the project will evolve to implementing TenForce as the company’s global platform for Incidents Management.

 

Indaver

Indaver chose TenForce for implementing a single platform to standardize and automate their Incident Management process and to effectively follow up on actions across all their plants. The project started a few years ago in Belgium and it was extended to include the production sites in the Netherlands, with Germany, Ireland, and France soon to follow. Read more.

“We chose TenForce because they understand the customer best and adapt the product to all the specific requirements. The module-based system was especially appealing to us, allowing a step-by-step approach. We started with Incident Management.”

Adrie Kaijser, Group Safety Manager, Indaver

 

Arlanxeo

Starting a few years ago, through technological co-creation, Arlanxeo and TenForce tackled the organization’s previously inefficient Permit to Work process. Not much later, Arlanxeo chose to use TenForce also for Incident and Audit Management.

Today, we continue to develop the application, and gradually moving away from local legacy apps (such as Lotus Notes). Extra features like intelligent risk analysis will continue to increase safety and efficiency. Read more.

“The most important goal is to be able to look further ahead. Instead of knowing today what must be done tomorrow, we should plan for next week. And beyond. Thus, we become more efficient.”

Tom Van Broekhoven, (former) Arlanxeo Production Manager
