Optimize Plant Layout and Minimize Cost with PlantWise


Bentley PlantWise enables rapid creation of fully routed 3D plant concepts for immediate collaborative review well in advance of detailing. Its automatic routing and immediate costing of piping and steel makes early and real-time "what-if" analysis of unlimited plant layout scenarios for ultimate plant optimization possible.

PlantWise can save lifecycle costs through early review of the 3D design for CAPEX risks and maintenance and operability concerns. Even before any detailed design has begun, operators and contractors can review the fully routed 3D plant model to determine optimal layouts from a cost and constructability perspective, find operations access problems, and immediately make adjustments.

A wide range of interoperabilities allow intelligent graphical exchange of PlantWise models with a large number of detailed design applications, including support for multiple vendors' detailed design packages and data exchange based on ISO 15926 reference data.

Key Benefits

  • Rapid evaluation of layout design alternatives
  • Allows engineers to determine the best layout option based on plot area and piping cost
  • Provides material quantities to support project estimating
  • Helps you minimize time-consuming design work in early stages of project definition

Find out how PlantWise with its rule-based design can help you to develop optimum plant layout designs and significantly enhance your competitive advantage.
