El-Seif Engineering & Contracting manages dozens of simultaneous live construction projects across Saudi Arabia. Prior to this transformation, ACONEX handled document control while InEight was selected as the new project management platform — but no integration existed between the two. Thirty-five document controllers manually re-entered every document record between both systems, consuming 80–100 hours every single week and introducing compounding data errors across active project sites.
The mandate: implement InEight company-wide, engineer a live two-way REST API integration with ACONEX, and drive adoption across all active projects — without disrupting live construction operations for a single day.
80–100 hrs/week lost to manual entry
35 document controllers copying data between ACONEX and InEight by hand — error-prone, unscalable, and consuming the equivalent of two full-time employees weekly.
Live REST API integration + phased rollout
Engineered a two-way REST API bridge between both platforms and rolled InEight out project-by-project — live operations uninterrupted, adoption scaling continuously.
Requirements Mapping & Configuration
Worked across all active project teams to map workflows, configure InEight modules to El-Seif's processes, and establish data governance rules for transmittals, approvals, and document standards.
Two-Way REST API with ACONEX
Engineered a live bidirectional REST API integration — documents registered in either system sync automatically in real time, zero manual intervention required.
Phased Project-by-Project Adoption
Designed a sequenced onboarding strategy so live operations continued without disruption. Each project team was onboarded with dedicated training and hypercare through go-live.
Executive Dashboard Automation
Built Power BI reporting layers connected to InEight data — replacing weekly manual status reports with live performance dashboards for leadership.
Digital Governance Framework
Architected a company-wide Digital Governance Framework anchored in HR policy — clear data ownership, escalation paths, and platform accountability across all departments.
