FLSmidth, a global engineering supplier of equipment and services to the global cement and minerals industries, has selected Intergraph® SmartPlant® Enterprise to design cement and mineral processing facilities, in order to improve processes control and increase efficiency. This multiyear agreement, signed in Denmark, comprises a suite of high-end solutions, including among others SmartPlant 3D Materials Handling Edition, SmartPlant Foundation and SmartPlant P&ID. This will allow FLSmidth to better integrate work processes, as well as engineering disciplines, and to standardize project phases from proposal to handover to service more than 400 users globally.
"Being an organization with employees worldwide, we need a solution that supports global and concurrent work processes," said FLSmidth Vice President Per Mejnert Kristensen. "Aligning our work processes on a global scale enables us to work as one company, offering our customers the FLSmidth expertise from one source. Offering an integrated and object- oriented solution, Intergraph has made this possible."

Intergraph's commitment to continuously improve and develop its solutions has also been a determining factor. By choosing Intergraph as our supplier, we are confident that we will be working with the newest developments and technologies within the field".
