Enhanced Digital Twin with Wearable Scanning and Document Control Launched by AVEVA

AVEVA has announced that its new enhanced engineering information management solutions, the core of its digital twin, now deliver greater time and value gains for capital projects and operations. With the seamless integration of AVEVA Point Cloud Manager and AVEVA Asset Information Management in the cloud, visualizing asset information with real-time data has become faster and easier. AVEVA customers can now experience a complete digital twin with wearable scanning and document control often within 60 days, even in the absence of existing models, due to deeper contextualization and enhanced visualization.

Two new industry partnerships will further augment the offering. AVEVA’s engineering information management solutions are now combined with the Assai integrated document management system and powered by data captured using NavVis’ wearable mobile mapping systems. As a result of the NavVis partnership, laser scans can be delivered faster than with existing stationary scanners, while Assai’s Document Control and Management Solutions expand AVEVA’s digital twin capabilities with more robust document information.

The newly expanded engineering information management solution portfolio is well suited to digital twin creation and utilization throughout the complete project lifecycle, for both capital projects and existing facilities. Sectors set to benefit from the enhanced solutions include oil and gas, energy, power and utilities, chemicals, marine and mining.

Digital twins are virtual replicas of real-life assets, processes, and full enterprises, and are key enablers of digital transformation. Designed as a lever to deliver greater sustainability and the circular economy at speed and scale, the AVEVA digital twin solution uses advanced data- and AI-based programs to help promote innovation and agility through monitoring, diagnostics, and prognostics to better optimize asset performance and utilization.

Companies can achieve a fully functional digital twin often in less than 60 days by publishing and integrating laser scan data within their engineering and operational performance data on AVEVA’s cloud platform, AVEVA Connect. Further, the NavVis wearable mobile mapping system can scan up to 10x faster than traditional laser scanners with comparable accuracy. The Assai integration helps to enable customers to ensure all digital documents remain evergreen and are easier to access.
