Wärtsilä is one of the world’s top suppliers of complete solutions for the power, marine, and energy markets.
Their product is a complex engine, propulsion, and maneuvering system for ships and various offshore applications—with a unique manual for each use. When a customer ordered a driveline, it would take six weeks to produce the documentation necessary for assembly. Wärtsilä’s aim was to shorten that wait time and reduce the amount of capital tied up in the delay.
With Skribenta, specific CADs, measurements, and parameters can be picked and version controlled directly at the source.
The time for producing preliminary documentation went from 6 weeks to 90 seconds. Documentation is now additionally used as a sales tool— after meeting with a client, a 150-200 page manual can be immediately produced and emailed to the customer.
