Unleash Innovation: 3 Benefits of Automating Custom Energy and Utilities Capital Asset Designs
In today’s sustainability-driven energy and utilities industry, customers require capital assets at speed and at scale. These massive projects typically have customized engineer-to-order (ETO) designs, with specific needs and requirements. Because capital projects often have limited repeatability and reuse of designs across engineering domains, capital asset construction has been plagued with siloed processes, low productivity, project delays and cost overruns.
So, how can engineering teams quickly transform requirements into designs that meet customer specifications while accurately predicting costs? It can begin with automating your design rules and processes. Here are three benefits your business can gain from design automation:
1. You can quickly deliver custom engineering designs
Use an enterprise BOM management solution with design automation capabilities to quote and quickly deliver custom engineering designs. This minimizes the need for unique, up-front engineering while allowing you to go faster. What’s the result? Engineering teams can produce accurate designs with the same speed and precision as standardized products.
2. You can take advantage of our next-generation engineer-to-order software
Whether you want to streamline engineering process efficiency through automation, reduce errors, or cut the time needed to produce manufacturing documentation, leading companies are already achieving great success using advanced engineer-to-order (ETO) software. Because a company’s ability to rapidly design new products that meet customer specifications can yield big wins for sales, it’s crucial to give your knowledge workers the latest ETO technology.
3. You can meet capital project requirements quickly and accurately
Our Teamcenter product configuration solutions offer tools and integrations needed to get your teams up and automating fast. New capital project requirements are addressed quickly and accurately, enabling engineers to create ETO designs in minutes instead of months.
Furthermore, through its easily configurable integrations with computer-aided design (CAD) and desktop systems, it accelerates bid-and-order engineering processes by automatically generating engineering outputs, including:
- Bill-of-materials (BOMs)
- Drawings
- 3D models.
Are you ready to streamline your power plant design processes?
With a staggering $130 trillion expected to flood into capital projects by 2027, companies must adopt advanced technologies and applications to streamline their capital asset design and power plant design processes. Your business can take the first step by empowering your engineers with tools to rapidly engineer custom solutions by automating design rules and processes. Are you ready to get started?
