ICT Engineering Work Flow &
Scheduling

The Vital Pulse
ICT Engineering is the magic behind the smooth running of
industrial processes. It involves the design, selection,
installation, and maintenance of instruments that measure
critical variables like pressure, temperature, flow, and level.
These instruments provide real-time data that control
systems use to maintain desired process conditions.
•The art and science of measuring and controlling process
variables.
•Ensures consistent product quality, safety, and efficiency.
•Integrates instruments, control systems, and automation.
The Work Flow - Overview
The I&C Engineering Section workflow follows a well-
defined process.
Key stages include:
•Project Initiation
•Design
•Procurement
•Construction
•Commissioning
Refer the handout given.

Schedule
The schedule will outline key milestones for each stage of the
workflow (Project Initiation, Design, Procurement, Construction,
Commissioning).
Consider including the following elements:
•A timeline with a clear start and end date for the entire project.
•Specific deadlines for deliverables and milestones within each
workflow stage.
•Dependencies between stages (e.g., Design needs to be
completed before Procurement can begin).
•Resource allocation (indicating when specific personnel are
needed for each stage).
•For a high-level overview, highlight major milestones.
•For a more technical audience, include more granular details with
specific dates and durations.

Editor's Notes

  • #2 In this presentation, we will delve into the Instrumentation and Control System Engineering Section's workflow and schedule. We'll explore the various stages involved in bringing an I&C system from conception to implementation, along with the typical timeframe associated with each phase. By understanding this process, we can ensure efficient project execution and successful system deployment.
  • #3 The I&C Engineering Section's workflow is a structured process that ensures a systematic approach to control system development. Each stage has its own deliverables and milestones, and successful completion of one stage paves the way for the next.
  • #4 Project initiation sets the stage for the entire I&C engineering effort. Here, we clearly define what the project aims to achieve, who the key players are, and a preliminary timeline for completion. This initial phase ensures everyone involved is on the same page.
  • #5 The design stage is where the project comes to life on paper, or more precisely, on computer screens. Here, engineers translate the needs identified during initiation into a detailed technical plan for the control system. This plan outlines the specific instruments, control loops, and logic required to achieve the desired process outcomes.
  • #6 Once the technical specifications are finalized, the procurement stage kicks in. Here, the I&C team identifies qualified vendors, solicits bids for equipment and materials, and selects the best options based on factors like price, quality, and delivery timeliness.
  • #7 Once the technical specifications are finalized, the procurement stage kicks in. Here, the I&C team identifies qualified vendors, solicits bids for equipment and materials, and selects the best options based on factors like price, quality, and delivery timeliness.
  • #8 The construction stage brings the designed control system to life in the physical plant. Here, technicians and engineers work together to install the instruments, control panels, and cabling as per the design specifications. They also perform preliminary checks and calibrations to ensure the system functions as intended.
  • #9 The commissioning stage is the final hurdle before the control system is handed over for plant operation. Here, engineers perform comprehensive testing to ensure all components function properly and the system integrates seamlessly with the process. Additionally, operators receive training to ensure they can effectively operate and maintain the control system.
  • #10 A well-defined schedule provides a roadmap for the entire I&C engineering effort. It ensures everyone involved understands the timeline, keeps the project on track, and facilitates resource allocation effectively. You can adjust the level of detail based on your audience's needs.
