Digitizing and Automating for Greater Efficiency and Compliance at REREC

Manual processes and paper-based records were slowing down Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation (REREC)’s ability to operate efficiently. As a key public sector institution under Kenya’s Ministry of Energy, REREC is responsible for expanding access to electricity and renewable energy across the country. Quality of service and compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements are critical to maintaining public trust and fulfilling the national development mandate.

The Challenge

The organization relies on internal agility and coordination to keep projects and services on track. But its legacy systems couldn’t meet the demands of a growing, distributed workforce or increasing governance requirements.

Managing key documents—such as project files, supplier contracts, regulatory approvals, and employee records—relied heavily on manual effort. With hundreds of employees across a national footprint, this slowed decision-making, increased administrative burden, and introduced risk.

The Solution

Metrofile, in partnership with digital transformation specialist DISI Group, digitized some half a million documents, implemented a centralized Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) alongside automation of core HR processes.

The digitization of documents and EDMS delivered real-time access, version control, cross-department collaboration, and built-in compliance and security controls. Automated workflows were integrated into core HR functions, including onboarding, approvals, and record updates, thereby eliminating bottlenecks and reducing the burden on HR teams. Tasks that previously took days were completed in minutes, with digital trails ensuring traceability and compliance.

The Outcome

By digitizing records and automating workflows, REREC gained a secure, scalable platform to power efficient operations—and a future-ready foundation for continuous growth.
