Ontex is a leading international producer of personal hygiene solutions for babies, women and adults. Partly due to the recent flotation, the workload of Ontex's legal department is growing rapidly.
The employees of this department offer daily support to all departments of Ontex worldwide, in a wide range of topics. Due to the growth in recent years, it is important to work more efficiently with each other and with the other departments, and a need has arisen for a SharePoint collaboration platform. Such a platform could be used for the central management of documents, provide access to all e-mail correspondence about the files, allow workflows and procedures to be set up for the different contracts (SharePoint based Contract lifecycle management) and all kinds of other things the optimise the internal operation.
Ontex chose Orbit One as a service provider to advise them on this and to take on the further coordination for building this collaboration platform in SharePoint. The first phase, QuickScan, will start this summer. Orbit One will hold a number of workshops so that it can first identify the high level requirements of Ontex in order to translate these into concrete, pragmatic ICT solutions.
After the completion of the QuickScan, Orbit One will present a high-level project plan for the next three years. This is a good start to a new partnership between Orbit One and Ontex.
