Intergraph Smart P&ID
Intergraph Smart P&ID
Intergraph Smart® P&ID software develops and manages your piping and instrumentation diagrams, focusing on design quality and consistency in the context of the plant asset. The piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is the detailed drawing of the process roadmap in an industrial facility. It shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control those related processes. The documents are developed, accessed, shared and modified throughout the plant lifecycle from design to operation. The best P&ID software focuses on a task-based approach. Connecting tasks between engineering, construction and operations is crucial to improving deliverables. Hexagon PPM makes data and information sharing a cornerstone of its products, so all engineering information is kept up-to-date to accurately reflecting the as-built plant. This enables other disciplines to base their design decisions on information from the latest digital P&IDs.

    "Best 3D modelling software so far"

    Posted 2022-09-05

    Pros: Have similarities from AutoCad Plant 3D but what i want in SmartPlant are:
    1. You don't have to open multiple files to edit the model
    2. You can see real time what your colleagues do
    3. There is a clipping tool for easier modelling. This is very helpful when there are many items in the area.
    4. User Friendly, Easy to Navigate
    5. Easy to find items in Hierarchy
    6. Easy to label pipelines and items
    7. Easy to model equipment and other items

    Cons: 1. Expensive
    2. Heavy in terms of computer use
    3. No trial

    Overall: For designers, Smartplant is very useful.
    It really helps designers to work easier and faster
    You can never go wrong with it.
