Top 10 reasons to use AutoPLANT

1. Accessible 
With plant engineering information centralized in one, integrated system that is readily accessible by all, owner-operators can reduce downtime, compress schedules, lower costs, minimize rework, and streamline maintenance to better meet regulatory and environmental requirements. 

2. Cost-effective solutions 
AutoPLANT provides plant engineers and designers with a complete set of integrated software applications that are highly intuitive and easy-to-learn.  This ease reduces cost and improves productivity.

3. Open 
AutoPLANT provides owner-operators and engineers with a scalable, comprehensive 2D and 3D engineering environment that leverages complex, heterogeneous data from diverse sources and geographically dispersed locations.

4. Proven  
AutoPLANT has been applied around the world on projects ranging from small retrofits and expansions to large, full-scale greenfield facilities.

5. Legacy data compatibility 
AutoPLANT leverages the vast amount of information from both engineering and non-engineering sources needed to effectively plan, engineer, construct, operate, and maintain your plant.

6. Strongest user base 
AutoPLANT is the number one product line in plant design.  Our users build and operate plants for the productions of fuels, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and pulp and paper.  They manage water and wastewater facilities, generate power, extract minerals, transport gas, and refine oil.

7. Enterprise systems 
AutoPLANT distributes information about plant components to non-engineering users through enterprise systems and extends the richness and the reach of those systems.

8. Scalable  
AutoPLANT is designed to accommodate design team size and structure fluctuations as the team starts off small performing conceptual design and expands and peaks during detailed design, through to construction, and then contracts as construction nears completion and the focus turns to operations and maintenance.

9. FEED to detail design 
Plants created with AutoPLANT begin as functional, intelligent Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) and evolve to physical 3D models, complete with piping, structural, instrumentation, and electrical subsystems.

10. Flexible  
Bentley offers flexible licensing plans for AutoPLANT, including perpetual, product and portfolio subscriptions, and enterprise subscription programs.
