What’s the problem ?

 Predictability
– Where are we? How are we doing? Will we make it?

If you want to know where to go you need to know where you are

How can that challenge be solved?

 Properly Implemented Work Packaging and Workface


Planning
 Early Project Planning that integrates Work Packaging
with
– Engineering
– Procurement
– Construction
– Project Controls

How does AVEVA address this?
 Vertical Planning
– Rough Cut Planning on the top
• Create and schedule Construction Work Packages
– Workface Planning below Rough Cut Planning
• Create Installation Work Packages
• IWPs shall stay in within he constraints defined during rough cut
planning (time & budget)
– Execution Layer on the bottom
• Provide a task list to the Forman
• Check constraints
• Execute work
• Gather actual data and let the system roll-up

How does AVEVA address this?
 4D / 5D Planning
– Link the schedule with the 3D model
– Simulate construction sequence to verify correct planning
– Integrate with materials management
• Materials are purchased and delivered to support construction
– Communication of tasks is improved at the workface
• “a picture is worth a thousand words”
– Predictability gets increased
 Visualisation
– Visualise material availability
– Visualise status by colour-coding objects in 3D model

Work Package Building (Kitting)

 Show a 3D Model in Planning


 Assign objects from model to work package
Step1:
Select item in the
model or from a list

Step2:
Assign to Work Pack

Timeline Simulation

 Assign objects from a 3D Model to Work Packages


– Can be done on all levels (CWPs, IWPs and jobs)
 Timeline Simulation
– Run through the schedule and simulate construction
– Verify correct construction sequence
– Change sequence of work packages in schedule if required

Run a Timeline Simulation

 Simulate construction sequence over time

Visualisation

Copyright © 2013 AVEVA Solutions Limited and its subsidiaries. All rights reserved.
Visualisation
 Resource Load
– Man power, machinery
 Material status
– To support the execution of work on-site
– Visualise material availability, i.e. give a warning if material
won’t be available on time
 Project Status
– Colour code objects in a 3D Model depending on their
status
– Status of object gets derived from underlying work
package status
 Project Performance

Summarised we’ve come pretty close to this:

Someone tells
me how to put
it together…

AND I CAN
RELY ON
THIS!
… and I have
everything I …and where it
need to do it has to be
installed …

What do we get?

 Communication of tasks is improved at the Workface


 Predictability gets increased
 Constraints such as craft availability, material,
scaffolding and drawings are better managed
 Engineering is able to support the construction
sequence and schedule
 Vendor-supplied equipment remains on schedule
 Materials are purchased and delivered to support
construction
