The Situation

Margün Enerji is a publicly listed energy company engaged in solar power plant investment, EPC and operations & maintenance. Those activities generate a continuously growing document archive — project files, field reports, contracts, technical drawings and official correspondence.

A significant share of that archive consisted of scanned documents. They could not be searched beyond their file names and folder structure, so reaching a contract clause or a field record depended on already knowing which folder held it. As the archive grew, this became an operational bottleneck.

Margün Enerji needed an internal archive system that did more than store documents — one that made their contents searchable and let teams reach the right document quickly while respecting access boundaries.

How We Worked

1

Document and Process Analysis

We examined the existing archive structure, document types and each department's access requirements.

Search behaviour is shaped by document types and by who needs access to what.

2

OCR Processing Pipeline

We built an automated pipeline that converts scanned documents to text, classifies them and prepares them for indexing.

Making image-format documents machine-readable was the precondition for searchability.

3

Search Infrastructure

We built a full-text index on Elasticsearch and added AI-assisted query interpretation for searching within document contents.

The goal was for users to type what they are looking for, not the name of a file.

4

Access Control and Interface

We developed role-based access control and a search interface with document preview.

Contracts and official correspondence required access boundaries by department.

5

Migration and Rollout

We migrated the existing archive into the system and completed user training and operational handover.

The system's value depended on the historical archive being searchable, not just new documents.
