The Future of Plant Design

The Future of Plant Design AVEVA Everything3D

Plant industries face unprecedented levels of change. The need to increase efficiency in order to respond to more challenging operating conditions and exploit new market opportunities has never been greater.

As we look to the future we have anticipated what will be required of next-generation plant design software in an initiative called The Future of Plant Design. This initiative sets out our vision for plant design and delivers a new product which will be continuously developed.

Our Vision Plant Design for Lean Construction

Closing the gaps for faster project delivery

AVEVA’s vision for plant design is to create a new product called AVEVA Everything3D (E3D) that exploits technology innovations in mobile computing, cloud computing and laser scanning to enable Lean methods in plant project execution.

The Lean principles that guide the continuous development of E3D are:

Respect for people➔ helping engineers, fabricators and constructors to work

more efficiently together

Eliminating non-value add activity➔ reducing rework and wastage

Maximising efficiency for value-add activities➔ improving design efficiency, compliance and fabrication/

construction information accuracy

E3D applies these principles to reduce the overall cost, time and risk in plant project execution.

AVEVA Everything3DNo. 1 for...

Rapid Project Start-up

➔ set up in days not months

➔ rapid global deployment

➔ reduce time to deliverables

Fast and flexible set up for large multi-discipline and multi-site projects with any arrangement of project partners

Simple user interface to reduce training needs

Integrated drafting and 3D data for rapid creation of first deliverables

Compliance

➔ maintain control throughout the design chain

➔ adhere to regulations

➔ conform to corporate standards

Inter-discipline access control based on approval level

AVEVA Plant, AVEVA’s Integrated Engineering and Design system, is a breakthrough in plant engineering and design efficiency. By integrating engineering data, schematics data and 3D design data into one managed plant model, it avoids costly and damaging inconsistencies.

With AVEVA Plant, critical information is efficiently shared between disciplines and across teams. This simplifies the process and improves project schedule and quality.

AVEVA E3D is the core design application of AVEVA Plant. It is fully interoperable with all other AVEVA Engineer, Design and Manage products.
