Châteaubriant, February 2018

The 10th ORINOX annual day took place this year, in Paris! It was a great opportunity for ORINOX FRANCE employees to catch up during this friendly meeting. Find here all details about this nice day!

Morning : introduction to some clients’ projects

Following our director Maxime FOURREAU’s greetings, Maxime GUILLOIS introduced, in details, the SoCalGas Cloud Project, which is a world’s first! His report highlighted the OCWS solution, which is truly innovating, mature, and can be used anywhere in the world, on any project’s size.

Then Haythem KAMOUN performed a speech about his current project at Technip FMC about information management tools.

After a short break involving delicious pastries, the Employee Delegation (Délégation Unique du Personnel in French) took the stage. New members were introduced, as well as the 2017 results and main subjects which will be covered during their mandate.

Etienne LEDOUX, AVEVA Account Manager and Fabio BOCCHI, AVEVA Application Engineer, held an interesting conference on the BIM’s 50th anniversary (Building Information Management) with AVEVA. All employees have appreciated this interactive speech.

Cocktail Lunch & workshops

During the lunch break, employees working on OCWS services, as well as the marketing service, have organized demo workshops in order to introduce ORINOX Cloud’s services:

• ORINOX Model Review: innovating multi-support application allowing to visualize information stored on the cloud.
• ORINOX WorkSpaces: Provision of virtual machines for collaborative multi-site work and pre-configured to host the major software vendors for industrial engineer & design;
• ORINOX Dashboard: Dashboard of stored information, facilitating the sharing and inventory of available information;
• ORINOX Immersive Training Simulator: Training simulator on industrial site allowing a very high rate of information retention thanks to the immersive properties of virtual reality and gamification.

Sharing such moments and new experiences have been well appreciated by employees, who have had the opportunity to test in avant-première these solutions!

The afternoon: briefing on 2017, 2018 and its new adventures, collective activity

Maxime FOURREAU, CEO of ORINOX took a moment to explain how 2017 went and to talk about the new adventures that await ORINOX in 2018, especially the new premises for the Lyon Research Department and the ORINOX headquarters in Châteaubriant, but also the diversification of ORINOX: consulting and Cloud services.

The entire ORINOX team then took part in a team building activity, with Zen Organisation and its activity “An almost perfect Lego“. The collaborators were divided into groups of 5 to 6, and had, turn by turn, to realize the largest tower, the longest bridge between two teams and to make guess to one of the members of their team the monument in Lego which they were assigned to.

ORINOX employees really enjoyed the activity, and everyone put their heart into it!

Congratulations to the winning teams:
1st on the podium: Guillaume BRILLET, Antoine CLEMENT, Romain LE GUEN, Loïc BRANELLEC, Leo SALVADOR, Anaïs HOUDIN-LECOURT
2nd on the podium: Rodolfo ROSA, Clémence GARCIA, Johan LE BEC, Jean-Charles CESBRON, Maxime GUILLOIS and Thomas MEREL

The evening: Dinner show at Disney Village

To end this beautiful day, we went to the dinner show “The legend of Buffalo Bill with Mickey and his friends” at the Disney Village. All employees were able to experience aTex-Mex American cuisine: corn bread, chili, Texan skillet, old-fashioned potatoes, all accompanied by a good pint and the clamor of the public.

Thanks
