​​

• Plant & Process Detailed Design: Functional Description Development, PFDs (Process Flow Diagrams) and P&IDs (Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams).

​

• Functional Description Development: Our approach begins with a comprehensive Functional Description that outlines the intended operation of the system, plant or process. This document serves as the foundation for all subsequent engineering efforts and includes:

  • System Objectives: Clear articulation of the goals and intended outcomes of the plant or process.

  • Process Requirements: Detailed specifications of the desired functionality, including production rates, operational conditions, and quality standards.

  • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): Metrics that will measure the effectiveness and efficiency of the process, ensuring alignment with business objectives.

  • User Requirements: Input from stakeholders to ensure that the design meets operational needs and expectations, addressing usability and safety considerations.

  • Integration Points: Identification of interfaces with existing systems, equipment, and control systems to facilitate seamless operations.

​

• Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs): Our PFDs provide a high-level overview of the process flow and are essential for understanding the interactions between various components.

​

• Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs): Our P&IDs offer a more detailed and technical view of the plant layout and instrumentation, serving as vital documentation for engineers and operators alike.​​​
