AVEVA Strengthens the Integrated Engineering and Design Approach of AVEVA Plant With Two New Products
Launched at ACHEMA 2009 will be a range of new and upgraded AVEVA product solutions aimed at tighter technology integration and increased productivity throughout the entire project lifecycle.
AVEVA's Integrated Engineering and Design approach integrates all plant engineering and AVEVA PDMS 3D design data within a single AVEVA model database. No additional foundation software is needed. The data is fully controlled, and can be used across all phases of engineering and design supporting fast, error-free design of a plant.
This Integrated Engineering and Design approach is now further strengthened with the launch of two new products in the AVEVA Plant portfolio; AVEVA Diagrams for P&ID, HVAC and Cable diagrams; and AVEVA Instrumentation for plant instrumentation solutions.
New Product - AVEVA Diagrams
Already proven as AVEVA Marine Diagrams, this product is now also available for the plant industry, alongside AVEVA's AutoCAD-based P&ID solution AVEVA VPE P&ID. AVEVA Diagrams handles P&ID, HVAC and Cabling diagrams and offers considerable freedom of use, including the ability to sketch out preliminary designs at the earliest stages of design and then introduce specification controls later on. Importantly, the product saves both the diagram and the engineering objects directly in the schematic part of the AVEVA model database, which is also used by the AVEVA PDMS product.
New Product - AVEVA Instrumentation
A brand-new addition to the AVEVA Plant portfolio, AVEVA Instrumentation is a feature-rich suite of integrated applications for the efficient specification, design and maintenance of all plant instrumentation and control systems. AVEVA Instrumentation is suited to the needs both of plant Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractors and of Owner Operators (OOs), providing a complete lifecycle solution. It can be used as an effective stand-alone product, or integrated with other AVEVA applications.
Richard Longdon, AVEVA CEO comments:
"Instrumentation is an important addition to our product range and with this new technology we will be able to leapfrog existing competitor products to offer customers the very latest technology which is also integrated with the powerful AVEVA database.
"AVEVA offers continually increasing capabilities in Integrated Engineering and Design. This delivers efficiencies through the use of a single information asset which is created and used collaboratively by all project participants. Duplication and sources of error are reduced and all project disciplines can work together with clear visibility of the entire design as it evolves."
