From complexity
to clarity.

Bring structure, consistency and control to project information. We help teams plan information delivery, establish Common Data Environments and manage the quality of engineering documents and data.

• Planning: information requirements, project mobilisation, procedures and implementation roadmaps.
• CDE setup & governance: project templates, permissions, workflows and administration standards.
• Document & data control: document and tag structures, review processes, validation rules and completeness reporting.
• Platform improvement: adoption, software utilisation and licensing reviews to support better use and cost control.

Typical deliverables: information management plans, configured CDEs, governance procedures, validation reports, utilisation dashboards and improvement recommendations.

Establish and maintain engineering environments that support consistent, coordinated project delivery—from initial setup to ongoing administration.

• Specifications & reference data: digital catalogues, specification conversion, reference data and material management support.
• Automation & customisation: rule-based validation, custom reports, workflows and platform integrations.
• Model readiness: checks for missing process and equipment data, duplicate tags, drawing errors, orphan objects and database synchronisation issues before submission.
• Training: administrator and user training for engineering, design and information platforms.

Platforms include: Octave / SmartPlant applications, AVEVA E3D/PDMS, Autodesk Plant 3D and CADWorx.

Typical deliverables: discipline content and catalogues, customised reports and automation, model conversions and training sessions. Scope and platform coverage are agreed for each engagement.

Connect engineering applications and reduce repetitive work with tools built around your existing systems. We develop integrations, reporting solutions and workflow automation to improve information exchange and support consistent delivery.

Specialist automation delivered with SS IT Consulting Services can include:

• Automated isometric generation, custom Smart 3D commands and rule checks.
• P&ID automation and material take-off extraction from PDF and .sha files.
• Comparison of pipelines, valves and specialties between Smart 3D and Smart P&ID.
• Vendor drawing comparisons that highlight differences for review.

Typical deliverables: custom utilities, system interfaces, automated workflows, comparison reports and management dashboards, with scope agreed for each engagement.

Prepare information for system upgrades, project completion or transfer into operations. Preserve relationships between documents, engineering tags and supporting records.

Typical deliverables: migration mappings and tools, validation reports, handover packages and archival processes.

Structure, validate and integrate engineering information to establish a reliable foundation for digital twins, from project delivery to operational handover.

• Digital twin readiness and information requirements.
• Linking equipment tags, documents and 3D models.
• Data quality, completeness and consistency checks.
• Engineering platform integration and information handover.
• Model preparation and conversion through our specialist partner.

Typical deliverables: readiness assessments, information specifications, linked asset datasets, validation reports and handover-ready information packages.
