Plant Design & Management System (PDMS)
The Plant Design & Management System (PDMS) is a software suite used in the engineering, design and management of industrial plants. Developed by AVEVA, PDMS is widely employed in industries like oil and gas, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and power generation.
It enables engineers and designers to create detailed 3D models of a plant and its components — used for construction, operation and maintenance. PDMS is a powerful tool that enhances the accuracy and efficiency of the design process while reducing costs and the risk of errors during construction and operation.
Industry Applications
Training Approach
EGAI's PDMS & E3D training emphasises hands-on experience. We believe in "practice what you preach" — each candidate is encouraged to practically apply every topic discussed for a better understanding of real-world plant design scenarios.
This comprehensive training approach allows candidates to effectively grasp all concepts and skills, enabling them to efficiently apply them in their field of work. Training is conducted on all five weekdays, with special weekend classes available on request.
EGAI has well-structured modules designed separately for students and working professionals. Fast-track training programmes are also available for those looking to upgrade their skills quickly.
State-of-the-Art Labs
EGAI boasts superior integrated infrastructure and modern labs for students to practise PDMS & E3D on industry-standard workstations.
AVEVA E3D — The Modern Successor to PDMS
AVEVA E3D is the modern successor to the legacy PDMS platform. It replaces traditional command-heavy workflows with a contemporary, ribbon-style CAD interface. Additionally, E3D eliminates the need for clunky add-ons by providing powerful, native handling of laser scan point clouds for brownfield modifications.
Key Features of PDMS
PDMS is a comprehensive suite covering the full plant design lifecycle — from 3D modelling and clash detection through to drawings, BOM generation and project management.EGAI's training covers all of these capabilities in depth.
3D Plant Design
Create detailed 3D models of industrial plants including piping, equipment, structures and electrical systems — visualising how the plant will look and function in real life before construction begins.
Multi-Disciplinary Collaboration
Integrates piping, structural, electrical and HVAC disciplines into a unified platform. Changes in one discipline's design are automatically reflected in others, reducing errors and rework.
Component Libraries
Extensive libraries of standard components — pipes, valves, pumps and more — that can be used directly in plant design. Libraries can be customised or expanded based on project requirements.
Clash Detection
Automatically identifies potential conflicts such as piping colliding with structural elements in the design phase — allowing corrections before construction, saving time and cost.
Isometric Drawing Generation
Automatically generates isometric drawings for piping — essential documents used during fabrication and installation of process plant components.
Bill of Materials (BOM)
Generates a detailed Bill of Materials based on the components used in the design — directly supporting procurement planning and accurate cost estimation.
Project Management Tools
Includes features for managing project data, controlling revisions and tracking changes — ensuring the plant design stays on schedule and within budget.
Integration with Other Software
Integrates with AutoCAD, CAESAR II (piping stress analysis) and ERP systems for smooth data exchange across the full engineering workflow.
Data Integrity & Consistency
Maintains a central database where all design information is stored — ensuring data integrity, consistency and efficient data management throughout the project lifecycle.
