One versatile data model from FEED to Operation
Designed for EPCs, plant manufacturers, contractors, and owner-operators, Engineering Base (EB) streamlines the design process and ensures seamless continuity from FEED to Process and Detail Engineering of process-oriented plants. The software's corresponding data model represents the highest level of digitization - Each object exists only once in it, and diagrams, datasheets and lists are only different representations of the same object. This allows for all departments to edit and detail the object from their unique perspective, with each addition directly visible to all parties without the need for interfaces, data transfers, or transmission errors. As a result, EB enables natural consistency throughout the design process. Learn more about EB on our website.Read more here
