Increased Productivity
All of the following aspects of promis•e boost your productivity by allowing you to work faster and more efficiently.
|
|
|
|
Intelligent Schematic Design
Unlike standard CAD software, promis•e treats a wire as a wire, not as a simple line. It can recognize the connections between devices, differences in potentials, and so on. System logic also provides automatic device ID assignment, automatic cross referencing, automatic wire numbering and error checking. Many of these functions are performed in real time, as you work.

|
|
Project-based Workflow
All the drawings and reports for a job are part of an inter-related project. Changes made to one part of the project are automatically reflected in the rest of the project. This greatly reduces the amount of work required when revising a design and also eliminates many potential errors.
|
|
|
|
Multiple Platform Support
promis•e can run as an add-on to AutoCAD, MicroStation or MicroStation PowerDraft. Our stand alone power platform version will not be out until at least January. For now we are using PowerDraft for users not wanting a full MicroStation install. |
|
|
|
Adherence to Standards
You can configure your promis•e system to default to the standards followed by your organization. This includes page formats, title blocks, ID formats and symbol libraries. These can be shared on a network to ensure consistency and ease of updating files.
|
|
|
|
Automatic Documentation Generation
You can generate reports and other documentation automatically, based on the content of your designs. This includes bills of material, purchase order lists, job costing analyses, wire lists, wire labels, terminal plans, cable diagrams, and more. |
|
|
|
Comprehensive Parts Database
An integrated parts database allows you to associate the components in your design with extensive parts information. Parts database files are available for many leading equipment manufacturers, eliminating the need to enter this data manually.
|
|
|
|
Multi-discipline Solution
The “drawing modes” available in promis•e allow you to include electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, wiring diagram and panel layout drawings in the same project and even on the same page. The same item can be referenced in different drawing modes. |
|
|
|
Compatible with Other Bentley Products
In addition to running on top of MicroStation, promis•e can share information with AutoPLANT, including parts data, tags, and attributes. |
