5. EPC Challenges
ďąExecute EPC âmega-projectsâ within budget
and on schedule
ďąMinimize construction delays due to lagging
information, material or equipment.
ďąTrack progress and maintain contingency
plans to stay on schedule.
ďąDocument project progress in terms of
installed quantities.

6. The Challenge
⢠Intelligently apply IT/CAD to the EPC
environment.
⢠Overcome conservative mind-set of builders.
⢠Push progression of 2D to 3D, 4D and even 5D.
⢠Apply IT/CAD tools to the advantage of
constructors and their clients. Better
productivity leads to better gross margins.

18. 2D Drawings and Sketches
⢠Traditional format
⢠Inter-drawing design coordination subject to error
⢠Change management requires rigorous document
control process.
⢠2D CAD used for nearly 30 years aids in drawing
format consistency as well as storage and
management of drawing files.

⢠Engineering Base is the innovative tool for electro engineering: it can
be used for every job and is adaptable to every workflow. Furthermore
it is quick and flexible in case of modifications.
⢠ELCAD is designed to create circuit documentation for electrical
engineering in every form. Its range of performances includes open
integration solutions for the company-specific workflow and technical
specialisation, including hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
⢠RUPLAN, with its extraordinary potential for automation, is the basis
for highly integrated solutions for industry sectors. This is proven by
its successful use in large power supply companies and in the
automotive industry.
