Cebeo centralises inspections and facility management for 60 sites

Sixty sites, hundreds of installations and a mountain of documents – facility management at Cebeo was becoming an ever-increasing challenge. Excel could no longer provide certainty and duplicate work was almost inevitable. That’s why Cebeo switched to Artion: a platform that restores order to chaos.

An end to a time-consuming approach

As the market leader in electrical materials, Cebeo manages an extensive network of buildings. Until recently, the company kept track of its inspections and installations mainly in Excel – a system that proved too limited and often led to duplicate work. 

‘Sometimes we forgot to enter data into Excel and ended up repeating an inspection that had already been done,’ explains Toon Van de Wiele, Energy and Sustainability Coordinator at Cebeo. ‘The lack of a clear overview cost us time and posed the risk of overlooking important details.’

A digital solution and indispensable tool

By switching to Artion, Cebeo chose a digital solution that goes far beyond only managing statutory inspections. ‘I use Artion every day – not only for inspections, but also as a data source for facility management,’ says Toon Van de Wiele. ‘We upload a wide range of building-related documents in Artion, so that everything is available in one place.’

The platform presents all 60 sites clearly in a single dashboard. The manager can see which inspections still need to be scheduled, where defects have been found and which systems are non-compliant at a single glance. ‘Everything is immediately visible – no need to click through dozens of tables or reports,’ adds Toon Van de Wiele.

The positive impact of Artion

Thanks to Artion, Cebeo saves time – and prevents a lot of frustration. Duplicate work is a thing of the past and the company can now focus on its core tasks more securely than ever. According to Energy and Sustainability Coordinator Toon Van de Wiele, the platform has become indispensable in daily operations: ‘Tasks that used to take days to follow up on are now visible at a glance. That gives me real peace of mind.’

The added value is clear to him: ‘I would definitely recommend Artion to others in the sector. Particularly companies with multiple sites will find it ideal for maintaining oversight and efficiency.’
