Challenge	Apex Energies, a pioneer in solar power in France, was experiencing rapid growth and had ambitious plans for the future. The company was looking for a collaborative, scalable tool to map, document, share, and improve its processes. The company's quality, health, safety, and environment (QHSE) department had been using free process modeling software, but these tools had several drawbacks. Mapping and updating processes was a complex and time-consuming endeavor, and users were unable to share information in-house, link documents, and collaboratively describe processes, give feedback, or make changes. The company needed a more collaborative, user-friendly application that could support its continuous process improvement program and help it achieve its target of increasing its installed capacity to 1 GWp by 2025.

Impact #1	The implementation of Nintex Process Manager has brought significant operational benefits to Apex Energies. The software has lived up to the company’s expectations, demonstrating its capability to map processes accurately and in detail, and enabling the continuous improvement the firm needs to support its operations.
