In this presentation, see how the AVEVA Data-Centric Digital Asset enables efficiency through all phases of
the project, driving potential savings of 10% of Total Project Cost through:
✓ improved collaboration;
✓ alignment of accountability;
✓ faster decision/actions cycles;
✓ reduction handover to operations costs; and
✓ reductions in overhead and indirect costs.
Also, through enhanced accessibility to all asset information, annual OpEx costs can be reduced 20-30% by
reducing time spent finding and validating engineering information; enabling data analytics that can
increase plant reliability; reducing maintenance and turnaround costs; and improving operations and
maintenance training and planning.
One Core
philosophy…
For every
Physical Asset…
There must exist a
Digital Asset
What is a Digital Asset?
Both assets need to be managed and sustained to ensure mechanical
integrity and safe operations. Each is an exact replica of the other!

A common misconception is
that a digital asset approach
Reduced Piping Stress Cycles
is too rigorous for early

Can you propagate engineering and design changes quickly and reliably across all
disciplines?
Can you incorporate late changes to design with minimal impact to execution?
Can you quickly and reliably recalculate TIC as the design changes?
Can you incorporate additional cost reduction cycles without impacting schedule?
Do your projects pass over from good ideas that are too late?
Can you reliably and automatically produce engineering and construction
deliverables from your source tools?
Do you resort to offshore “value” centers to produce deliverables?
