Intergraph to Include KKS in SmartPlant Enterprise
 HUNTSVILLE,
AL, Sep 28, 2007 - Intergraph Corp. is expanding its commitment to the power
industry by including the Kraftwerks Kennzeichnungs System (KKS) process
plant designation standards within its
SmartPlant
Enterprise solutions suite. SmartPlant Enterprise offers integrated
solutions with rule-based engineering to facilitate fast-tracking projects
with data consistency across disciplines and global work teams.
SmartPlant Enterprise solutions’ abilities to define and exchange KKS
plant breakdown structures and component codes, as well as its capability to
define KKS naming rules, will now be enriched with actual KKS content,
leading to reduced overall project start-up times and increased design
consistency across different disciplines. By delivering predefined KKS
content for the SmartPlant Enterprise tools, such as SmartPlant
Instrumentation or SmartPlant Electrical, Intergraph allows clients to more
easily benefit from the software’s existing capabilities and helps expedite
the engineering process for those clients who adhere to these
specifications.
KKS libraries are recognized as the industry standard for consistent and
systematic classification of power plants. Intergraph is the first company
to receive permission from VGB PowerTech e.V. (VGB), the industry
association that issues guidelines for the development, construction and
operation of power plants, to pre-configure its solutions with KKS
standards.
“Our agreement with VGB is part of an overall initiative by Intergraph to
support critical industry standards, with a strategic focus on the power
industry to assist our clients in meeting the growing demand for power
globally,” said Patrick Holcomb, executive vice president, Intergraph
Process, Power & Marine. “Now more than ever before, Intergraph is
well-equipped to meet the needs of the power industry by offering
value-added solutions, trained industry experts to support our customers and
design templates to facilitate fast project start-up and execution.”
As the demand for power is growing, especially in fast-growth economies
such as India and China, additional power plants need to be designed and
constructed more quickly and reliably.
Intergraph has long been recognized as a leading solutions provider in
the power industry, providing plant design, engineering, construction and
operations solutions to major customers. These companies, which lead the
world in the design and construction of fossil fuel, co-generation and
state-of-the-art nuclear power plants, can increase productivity in every
phase of the plant life cycle, resulting in substantial manpower and cost
savings.
