Hi Again luke,
what you say is true but as you seen we had are plant drawn that was a working as built model, we have now converted that too are new software so we have a as built plant running in a management tool as its now broke down into different areas. 1. is just a view so can see pipe and vessels 2. is the design side to add or change old pipes mainly used for engineers 3. a ISO and section part and final a costing a weight part. This software tags every part of the plant and works well. So i do believe Luke that is a as built plant in a PDMS system. I do agree tho it is alot to do with what the custmer wants that is why we broke are software up so can give people what they need.
I'm certainly not arguing against the use of as built models, far from it! I was just suggesting that sometimes its the design model that is used to provide information such as P & ID's, ISO's, BOM's etc. I've also been involved with some large(ish) as built model projects so I know its been done and we have customers who are working on such projects as I type as well as a long history of customers working on similar projects.
The software product sounds exciting and I look forward to seeing it in action again. Are you planning on incorporating point cloud capability into it as standard?
