HYE Construction is no small player. For example, it is helping to raise 15 bridges over the Albert Canal and is currently building a new hydroelectric power plant at the lock complex in Diepenbeek. At the same time, the hydraulic engineering firm has transitioned its project management to a digital platform. Paper files are a thing of the past, and project tracking and internal communication run much more smoothly thanks to the implementation of Microsoft 365. Alistar advised HYE and implemented Docufly, a SharePoint-based solution centered on \u2018digital collaboration.\u2019 .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nAlistar fully understood our needs and provided the perfect solution. To ensure the implementation was practical, the team also spent a lot of time talking with our users and listening to their expectations and concerns.<\/p>\nGeorgy Eggermont, Head of Strategy, Organization, and Development<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
HYE is a specialized contractor in hydraulic engineering, building, among other things, quays, bridges, and hydroelectric power plants for the Flemish government and private clients. The company is part of the H2O Group in Zwijndrecht, a group of water-related companies that has made digitalization a key focus of its strategy. Georgy Eggermont, head of strategy, organization, and development, says: \u201cWe want to get all our companies on track digitally. To that end, we are looking for high-performance systems that help us work more efficiently and transparently. It is not our intention to make heavy investments or undertake large-scale implementations, but rather to invest strategically in various programs that can quickly provide concrete solutions to our specific needs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For HYE, operating in a decentralized manner is one of those specific challenges. \u201cWe\u2019re constantly carrying out various projects throughout Flanders. That means many of our 160 employees work on-site. On the one hand, they need to be able to communicate easily with each other, as well as with clients and suppliers\u2014sometimes in places where internet coverage is lacking. On the other hand, we also want to ensure seamless data sharing with our headquarters in Zwijndrecht, where our central services are located.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
