Client Overview and Challenge
AQUEOS is a leader in marine construction, commercial diving, and vessel contracting, serving industries like oil and gas, civil, military, and renewable energy. They operate in the Gulf of Mexico, California, and other regions, using their expertise to solve complex subsea problems. However, AQUEOS needed to speed up their bidding process for marine construction jobs, especially for big clients like Shell and Chevron, where accurate and quick estimates for boats, labor, and equipment were crucial.
Actions Taken
To address these challenges, AQUEOS implemented our ExcelerPlan (EP) tool to streamline their bidding process. ExcelerPlan enabled AQUEOS to automate pricing for resources like boats, labor, and equipment. This allowed them to reduce the time it took to generate bids from 8 hours to just 30 minutes. The tool’s flexibility and accuracy also made it easier for AQUEOS to handle complex estimations for offshore work, including marine construction and inspection jobs.
Results and Impact
The implementation of ExcelerPlan dramatically improved AQUEOS’s ability to generate accurate bids quickly, giving them a competitive edge in their industry. The faster turnaround time allowed them to respond to more opportunities and secure contracts more efficiently. This improvement has significantly impacted their operations, especially in high-demand areas like offshore oil rig work, where timely and accurate bids are essential to winning projects.
