• ePlan Review – goal: cut permit application time by 60%, can save industry $15 billion/year

• Automated Code Checking (Autocodes) – goal: reduce plan review time from months to minutes, cut review time by 80%

Regulatory Streamlining Initiative –A Step Change Improvement in the Review Process

Lead Fiatech Members


– Specific Automation: – increase productivity and advance interoperability to computer aided design (CAD), building information modeling (BIM)

– Supplier Information Exchange with Design to Support Construction - Standardization of deliverables improves repeatability and productivity to meet design intent.

– Common Design Workflow Checklist, Workflow Mapping Of Engineering Deliverables To Construction – enhance the work processes of Design and the integration with construction

Driving Increased Business Value through Design and Interoperability


Leadership for Advancing Interoperability• Advancing Interoperability Vision Paper, with Calls to Action • JORD Project and iRING – advancing data interoperability with

PCA • Structural Steel Interoperability for the Building and Process

Plant Industries – with AISC and bSa, led by Chuck Eastman, GA Tech

• HEED Project – data exchange for engineered equipment• Oil & Gas Data Project – demonstration project with MIMOSA• ISO 15926 Project Information Flow- 2nd year, piping data

exchanges from design to construction• IIP Project – with iRING Community, ISO 15926 data mapping• Information Management across roadmap with increased focus on

procurement and operations


Information Management Data Exchange

How much did a major chemical supplier save in one year by using the ISO 15926 (like BIM) data standard for consistency checking across internal engineering instrument tools?

A.$1M

B. $8.4M

C. $11.3M

D.$28M


• CII studies have shown that materials and installed equipment can comprise 50-60% of a project’s total cost and control 80% of its schedule (Ibn-Homaid 2002)

• The construction industry only invests 0.15% of its costs in materials management and control, (Marsh,1985),versus 1% for the manufacturing industry (Formoso and Revelo 1999).

Procurement & Materials ManagementOpportunities

Our Vision: A committed, integrated team skilled in working withadvanced, user‐friendly technologies at that enabling high levels of quality and productivity through the life‐cycle of capital projects.

Technology Enabled Workforce

• 3D ALARA Planning Tool – step change productivity advancement for hazardous environments; huge potential for operations training

• Augmented Reality Project• Best practices recruitment of people in technology‐related fields• Attracting the Next Generation • Developing Core Technology Competencies • Leveraging Technology to Improve Construction Productivity • User Acceptance of Mobile IT Report• Introduction to ISO 15926 Report and Training• Training Course for Implementing Regulatory Streamlining


Our Vision for Intelligent & Automated Construction Sites

The construction process and project site are re‐engineered to make use of emerging information and automation technologies to

• minimize capital facility delivery costs, • expedite facility delivery time, • improve delivered quality, • eliminate re-work, and • minimize lifecycle costs.

“…data from megaprojects shows that 65 percent …failed to meet business objectives.”

paraphrased ‐ …70% of Energy projects have not met budget and 85% have not met schedule

Networking, Collaboration and Partnerships

Peter Blake, Hatch – “Through discussion with an expert that we only have access to through Fiatech, we were able to save over $250,000 on one project.”

Major EPC firm – Fiatech’s member driven project approach gains us access to experts we would not normally have available and leverages our development investment at least 10 to 1.

The Mobile IT Community of Interest in partnership with COMIT is sharing advanced practices for field automation, delivering productivity improvements for our construction practices. – Fiatech Member
