Benefits
Greater engineering efficiency
Integrated engineering, design, and simulation data in a data-centric model of your plant allows designers to identify and resolve clashes between disciplines.
Superior change management
The software simplifies project management with detailed change history and real-time visibility of multidiscipline updates, including changes to linked schematics and datasheets.
Reduced engineering rework
By designing alongside all disciplines from a single data-centric environment, you can comprehensively detect clashes to eliminate costly on-site rework in the design stage.
Features
Artificial intelligence
In-built AI tools, including an LLM industrial assistant as well as both predictive and generative design tools, augment user experience, helping teams work smarter and faster.
Automatic cross-discipline updates
Directly integrate engineering and design data across disciplines and dimensions. Project updates in either 3D, or 2D and 2D tools are highlighted to their respective discipline teams to implement.
Start quickly and configure
Secure and straightforward deployment, including out-of-the-box default project configuration, enables teams to begin work fast. Configure projects according to requirements and design standards.
Verify construction alongside design intent
With integrated photorealistic laser scan data in the design environment, users can intuitively and accurately plan modification, design, and construction status verification against the design intent as construction progresses.
Import and design with laser scan technology
Import and interact with data from any laser scanner, including traditional static scanners as well as mobile, airborne, and hand-held devices regardless of manufacturer.
Asset lifecycle management
Closely track, audit, and manage deliverables information, including approvals, mark-ups and versioning to simplify project oversight and delivery.
Apply Sørco achieves 30% reduction in design time
The EPC firm uses laser scan technology and AVEVA E3D Design to engineer more efficiently. The firm can now win contracts with clients demanding lower project costs.
How can you use AVEVA E3D Design as part of AVEVA Unified Engineering?
Simplify complex capital projects
AVEVA E3D Design allows global, multi-discipline teams to work collaboratively on the same project data at the same time. This ensures fewer errors and design clashes across disciplines as design intent down to pipe structure can be verified against the model.
Generate drawings based on designs
The software allows teams to rapidly generate accurate drawings and deliverables directly from the design, which are updated in real time alongside the design.
Digitize project compliance
AVEVA E3D Design lets users configure design rules and contractual requirements with change highlighting, tracking and status management to streamline compliance.
FAQs
