SmartPlant Construction

A major construction project involves thousands of workers, millions of details, and numerous complex variables, such as labor, materials, weather, and schedules. How can you manage billions of bits of data every day to complete the project on time and budget?

The challenge for the construction industry is determining how to make informed decisions based on the information available and how to manage people and materials in the ever-changing construction environment.

 

Intergraph® will offer SmartPlant® Construction to meet the specific needs of construction companies, project management offices, fabricators, and owners in managing construction resources, materials, and schedules. SmartPlant Construction will help companies realize significant savings over the life of a construction project.

 

SmartPlant Construction will promote better planning and management by incorporating the dynamic inputs from engineering, procurement, fabrication, site materials management, and craft labor plans into a solution specifically for construction.

To enhance flexibility and interoperability, SmartPlant Construction will offer full integration with the industry-leading SmartPlant Enterprise suite of products. Take advantage of data interfaces and true integration. The solution will build on the proven SmartPlant Enterprise portfolio by offering a wide variety of functionality provided by SmartPlant Enterprise solutions.

Business Benefits

  • Reduce risk and improve transparency of construction
  • Save construction time with better planning and tracking
  • Improve decision-making capabilities through ad-hoc reporting on construction progress, risks, and change costs
  • Take advantage of integration with industry-leading SmartPlant Enterprise as well as an open API
  • Improve productivity and reduce training costs with simple user interface

Dynamic Workface Planning

SmartPlant Construction’s intuitive, configurable interfaces will enable workface planners to create effective field installation work packages (FIWP) based on COAA workface planning. Real-time craft and material integration availability reports will provide dynamic replanning capabilities, and a configurable planning window will enable planners to create reasonable alternatives before problems grow.

Enterprise Solution

Planned for release in 2009, SmartPlant Construction will benefit the entire engineering,

procurement, construction, and operations value chain:

  • Owner operators can improve CAPEX efficiency by consistently managing engineering information from concept through operations and maintenance
  • Fabricators can provide direct input to facilitate real-world construction plans
  • Constructors can increase profits with improved visibility on project plans, accelerate their ability to re-plan dynamically in response to real-world changes, and take advantage of enhanced integration with engineering, procurement, and fabrication to optimize both engineering and construction decisions
  • Engineering firms can optimize engineering decisions based on construction status, and vice versa

Multidisciplinary Solution

SmartPlant Construction can be used in a variety of roles, including:

  • Supervisor
  • Foreman
  • Workface planner
  • Construction planner
  • Integration coordinator
  • Material coordinator
  • Resource coordinator
  • Quality coordinator
  • Safety coordinator
  • Financial planner
  • Engineer
