Breakout SessionBusiness problem: Engineering companies work with instrument vendors to build and furnish processing plants. There are countless hours wasted on every project due to the lack of historical data use and system integration between engineering companies and the familiar vendors that they work with on countless projects. We continue to re-invent the wheel on most new projects, even when we have worked with the same client and vendors on similar processing plants in the past. Value proposition: Streamline the flow of engineering data across vendor and engineering contractors systems and tools. Collect historical data and use for informed sizing and selection and even estimating purposes. Mapping interfaces between different systems to reduce/eliminate human error factor.

Breakout Session It is fundamental to build all necessary prerequisites for an effective digital transformation to take place. Hence, a series of initiatives has been implemented to transition to a higher level of information organization and enhance the engineering design environment. These initiatives were developed focusing on data structuring, information standardization, redundancy reduction, auditing mechanisms and workflow standardization and automation. Having design information described so that a computer system understands it, the work can be performed in a faster, more detailed, error-free and standardized manner. As opposed to a document-centered design (where focus is on form), a data-centric design is one in which focus is on information. This innovation challenges regard not only technology but also concerns culture change. These initiatives have enabled new ways of elaborating engineering design, taking advantage of Intergraph Smart P&ID, Intergraph Smart Instrumentation and Intergraph Smart 3D, raising the bar of quality and productivity to levels beyond our grasp until now.

Breakout SessionFor generations, we have been trained to put data into systems to feed rearward-looking reports that show what happened. By adding EcoSys into the mix, we have added standardized processes and a centralized platform that automates the production of reports, dashboards and many types of workflows, allowing us to produce actionable data. We literally have a database of historical and current project, portfolio and contract data that has so much more to tell us! This session will dive into how FTI's Data Intelligence Group is organizing data by integrating EcoSys and other structured and unstructured data while applying statistical models to develop new insights into the existing data. This arms decision makers with quantitative data, predictive models and easy visualizations and reports to focus on key issues that truly impact outcomes. Come see how EcoSys and Data Intelligence provides new ways to drive project performance if you have ever asked questions like: - Does the duration of a project affect the likelihood of cost overrun? - How likely is a project to hit its Class III Estimate target? - How do RFIs impact productivity? - How likely is each project in a portfolio to hit its forecasted spend (or revenue) for next month? - What is the likely impact to margin for a given Change Order? - What PM / CM combination produces the best project outcomes? Come see how EcoSys and Data Intelligence can provide new ways to drive project performance!

Breakout Session There's an element of risk with upgrading enterprise software systems. The organization relies heavily upon the system, which requires confidence in the new version be established prior to rolling it out to the production environment. This holds true with EcoSys as well. With an added element of customer configuration, ensuring a seamless upgrade can be a time-consuming endeavor - sometimes significantly delaying (or even skipping) an upgrade. In this session, we review the automated processes used by Hexagon PPM to test new EcoSys releases, identify methods to incorporate and ways we can work together to accelerate the time to upgrade, thus spending fewer resources on testing and leveraging improved capabilities and performance much sooner.
