Summary

The client’s materials management process was slowing projects down and driving up costs. Data was not reliable and project teams were spending time fixing problems instead of moving work forward.

ReVisionz introduced a new approach using Hexagon’s Smart Reference Data (SRD). We built corporate piping material line classes, tied them into the ERP system and shifted the client from document-driven practices to a data-centric process. This created a single, reliable source of information that eliminated duplication and improved accuracy across projects.

The impact was immediate. Material data became dependable, engineering hours were saved and rework dropped away. Projects now start weeks sooner, procurement moves more efficiently and teams have the confidence to focus on higher-value priorities. The client also gained a stronger digital foundation, positioning them to adopt digital twin technology and expand their broader asset information management program.

Challenges

  • Regional specification variations across Canada and the United States.
  • Manual data entry and inconsistent EPC deliverables.
  • Integration gaps with CADWorx, ERP and other systems.
  • Aligning stakeholders on new processes and standards.
  • Managing cloud implementation and new reporting formats.

Solutions

  • Built corporate piping material line classes (PMLCs).
  • Implemented Smart Reference Data (SRD) as the foundation for material masters.
  • Aligned processes and standards across engineering, procurement and operations.
  • Integrated SRD with ERP and CADWorx tools.
  • Delivered training and change enablement to drive adoption.
