Requirements
- Management of Documentation
- Compliance Management
- Hazard Management
- Incident Management
- Contractor Management
- Reporting and Trend Analysis
- Standard Report Creation
- Control of contractor maintenance and remedial work
- Communication and Application of Company Policies and Procedures
Solution
DataStation deployed with minimal customisation.
An incident reporting helpdesk telephone number was operated until all individual stores were connected to the company network.
Remedial work and contractors managed via a customised ‘Job Management’ tool and ticketing suite.
Benefits and Results
Significant cost cutting has been achieved by the implementation of DataStation. Rather than using third party consultants for store auditing, store managers participate in a routine auditing program using DataStation Report Generator. Standard reports are produced and actions are captured and assigned. Reporting and analysis is now a desktop exercise from head office.
Following the acquisition of a large subsidiary in 2007, DataStation was used for the integration of Health & Safety procedures and policies. Integration was achieved in a paperless process and audits conducted using Report Generator (online version 3).
Quote from Mothercare: "DataStation has become an integral part of our business, growing and adapting as we do to continue to meet our requirements."
