Limited Tools Were Slowing them Down

THREE60 Energy Norway, known for its unparalleled breadth and depth of energy industry knowledge, faced several time-consuming challenges that echo throughout the energy sector. Most of their proposals and reports are large and complex, require multiple experts across global offices, and involve strict compliance and tight deadlines.

“When it came to proposal and report writing, Word gave experts a little too much flexibility, which often led to a lack of focus and inconsistent responses. Coupled with complex documents, multiple contributors, and global offices, we were wasting too much time correcting structure, reformatting and fixing documents to produce the level of quality content clients we’re looking for..”

“When it came to proposal and report writing, Word gave experts a little too much flexibility, which often led to a lack of focus and inconsistent responses. Coupled with complex documents, multiple contributors, and global offices, we were wasting too much time correcting structure, reformatting and fixing documents to produce the level of quality content clients we’re looking for..”

  • Consistent Structure. Individual experts worked in Word, which gave them a lot of flexibility, yet resulted in inconsistent documents that were difficult to navigate.
  • Content Reuse. The right content was hard to find, and involved spending time searching multiple sources, which didn’t always yield the desired results.
  • Collaboration. Teams worked in silos, making it difficult to harness global expertise quickly. And time-consuming to collect, compile and reformat multiple versions.

“If you want to stop wasting time on formatting and fixing documents, and you want to scale your model for growth while producing high-quality proposals, co-authoring and document automation software is part of the equation.”

Founded in 2016, THREE60 Energy Norway has grown more than three times in the last decade through organic growth and strategic acquisitions. With more than 20 offices and operational hubs worldwide, and over 1,000 employees, they needed to solve the document development  challenges with a scalable solution.

Tangible Business Outcomes

Today, THREE60 Energy Norway has overcome the inconsistent structure, content reuse, and collaboration challenges they faced. Now they are delivering more consistent proposals and reports faster while raising the bar on content quality. In fact, client feedback has been remarkably positive.

“Our clients can see the difference in the quality of our proposals and reports, where our experts are investing more time. Because we are more efficient and productive, we are delivering significantly better quality that elevates and reinforces our brand.”

  • Greater Efficiency. Document gathering, compilation, structuring, and formatting is automatic, reclaiming time wasted manually fixing Word documents.
  • Greater Productivity. Experts spend more time focused on strategizing and writing which better optimizes their time and boosts content quality. .
  • Greater Collaboration. Global experts work together on proposals and reports, seamlessly sharing content and feedback that more rapidly improves content quality.

“Our proposal development ranges from the simple to the complex, significantly complex as we expand into new markets. The level of efficiency we have achieved, and quality we can consistently deliver, gives our teams more time to strategize and position us for driving that growth with high-quality proposals.”

A More Structured Solution

XaitPorter is the benchmark team co-authoring and automation software solution. Ideal for complex tenders, proposals and reports where teams co-author and everyone saves time to get more done.

“Humans are creatures of habit, so naturally we fear change. It can disrupt our daily routine and put us outside of our comfort zone. Adoption takes time. Understanding this, it was our ability to showcase the benefits of XaitPorter in action that helped us sway contributors over to what one called a “life-changing” way of working more successfully together.”

  • Co-authoring. Knocks down walls between experts and across global offices to more quickly harness the organization’s collective experience and wisdom.
  • Predefined Templates. Takes the guesswork out of commonly used content while maintaining a consistent structure throughout development of more unique requirement responses.
  • Content Library. Easy and intuitive to use, this centralized asset saves time with granular searches and automatic content inserts. It also keeps common content components consistent across all documents while reducing fear of the blank page.
  • Helpful Team. Comprehensive training with the experts and personalized support from our dedicated Customer Success Manager ensured a smooth and successful transition and a firm foundation for future growth.

 

“XaitPorter helps us write more proposals and reports faster with our same staff while helping us improve content quality - a must-have combination as we continue to scale and grow. The Xait team has been great, and having a personal Customer Success Manager on board supporting our goals means access to best practice tactics and evolving support functionality.”
