OpenPlant, ProjectWise Lifecycle Server, and ISO 15926 iRING Manoj Dharwadkar, Ph.D. Director, Data Interoperability Bentley Systems Inc.
Presentation Overview • PW Lifecycle Server (LCS) for – Handover Scenario – Single Source
• Implement LCS with ISO 15926 – Rapid Deployment Toolkit
• OpenPlant – Current solutions built using ISO 15926 iRING • EPC to Owner-Operator Scenario – Bentley is Reading/Writing ISO 15926 iRING using RDS/WIP
Why Lifecycle Server for Handover? • Comprehensive Management of Change • Full State Control • Data Quality Management • Integrated Security Control • Flexible Architecture • Document and Data Cross Referencing • Data Integration Platform • Complete Multi-Language Support
ProjectWise Lifecycle Server
Why Lifecycle Server as a Single Source? • Independent of a specified set of creation tools • Repository for all data and documents, not just an Operations or Design specific portal • Desktop or Web-based implementations • Simple, easy-to-use interface for Maintenance and Operations
ProjectWise Lifecycle Server
Traditional Handover Scenario As the project nears completion, project owners are inundated with:
– Design Data – Design Documents – Vendor Data – Vendor Documents
Plant Operations - Handover Effects • Owner is faced with completing the expensive and highly manual processes of Data Analysis and Document Analysis • Because the analysis is time sensitive it requires highly skilled employees, increasing the cost of the exercise drastically • Commissioning Process is delayed • Initial Startup is delayed costing, at times, millions per day in lost revenue

Handover Requirements Traditional Handover Scenario What’s needed is a way to create a repeatable process that allows owners to:
– Define and Share Requirements – Analyze Documents – Analyze and Consolidate Data – Capture and Apply Knowledge – Report on Project Status
Benefits for Handover Solution
• Avoid labor-intensive exercises for highly skilled employees • Improve the Data for Commissioning • Decrease the Time for Commissioning • Improve Data Quality when populating Mission Critical Systems • Decrease the cost of populating Mission Critical Systems via Automation • Get to Initial Startup Faster
Handover Success Stories Document Workflows Client Problem A Large Owner Operator had, after 2 years of Document Analysis, 5,000 documents Action • 3 Month pilot initiated to analyze document meta data Result • 10,000 Documents analyzed in 24-48 hours • XML Export to assist with loading into Documentum • Client estimated that we’d saved them at least $1 Million U.S. in costs
Handover Success Stories Data Analysis
Client Problem Large Capital Project requiring design data loads taken in and analyzed on a consistent basis Action • Continuous Handover process initiated Result • Ability to automate and load design data on a consistent basis with larger loads approaching 100K objects per load • The largest test completed consisted of a data set that exceeded 350K objects in a single load that came from 4 different sources
Plant Operations - Single Source Multiple Data and Document Repositories In Commissioning or Operations employees are faced with: – Multiple Document Repositories – Ad-hoc Data Repositories – Various Applications Interfaces
Plant Operations - Single Source Multiple Data and Document Repositories The effect of this is: – Maintenance personnel have to be trained on multiple applications – Data and Documents are often times held in insecure repositories – Personnel take hours to find the appropriate documentation wasting wrench time – Maintenance and Retrofit activities are delayed
Plant Operations - Single Source Multiple Data and Document Repositories What’s needed is a single repository pointing to: – Clean and Consistent Design Data – Associated Design Documents – Associated Vendor Documents – Easy-to-search Portal for Operations – Integrated Enterprise Systems • Maintenance • Financials • Control Systems
Single Source Success Story Single Source of Truth
Client Problem • Data and documents hard to find, located in over 15 locations that all required specific search routines • •
Data and documents were not consistent Heavy use of desktop files and databases Action • LCS Implementation to: – Define their information specification – Provide an engineering portal data and documents – Provide a handover repository for data and documents – Provide an operations portal for data and documents
Result • Time spent searching for information was reduced from an average of 1 hour to an average of 3-5 minutes • Client was provided almost immediate ROI when rolled out based solely on reduction in costs associated with finding maintenance data and documents
Why Implement LCS with ISO 15926? • ‘An average of 40% of engineering time is dedicated to finding and validating information from disparate systems’ – “Cost Analysis of Inadequate Interoperability in the U.S. Capital Facilities Industry”, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Office of Applied Economics.
– Avoidance Costs – money spent to prevent interoperability problems
from occurring
Often realized in redundant systems and increased use of bandwidth and training costs to maintain legacy systems. – Mitigation Costs – money spent to correct problems once they occur Primarily visible in the data reentry and validation requirements that results in redundant labor. As a consequence, no matter the phase of the project, time must be spent ensuring all parties have the same information via manual intervention. – Delay Costs – money lost due to schedule slippage The consequence of the impacts of avoidance and mitigation costs.
