Puma5 : a successful historyConsolidated system in the Italian market, expanding in the Europe First issue in 1990, developed based upon the major Italian

plant layout companies Utilized by more than sixty companies Stand-alone and client-server flexible configuration, utilised

also by multinational companies having centralised servers with world-wide access

Web enabled via MS Terminal Services

Integrated with the more utilised 3D CAD systems: AutoPLANT, PDS, PDMS, Unigraphics

Integrated with ERP SAP e J.D.Edward systems

Puma5 strategy

Be on the market as a valid alternate solution to the systems at present utilised for piping management (both commercial and in-house developed), that are complex, expensive and require a huge utilisation of resources and time for customisation and maintenance

Make available all the necessary tools and codes for design and management, to be immediately utilised “as-it-is” (if necessary customisation are performed in very short time)

Maintain and increase the present market share, through continuous updating and improvement

Increase integration with CAD systems and corporate management systems


13

Main key factors

Immediate and easy to use

Fully integrated with MS Office (export in Excel and Word formats)

Data located on centralised server continuously updated and available

Direct integration with 3D CAD systems (Piping Classes export, material lists import) AutoPLANT (Bentley) PDS 3D (Intergraph) PDMS (Aveva) UG (Unigraphics)

Complete functions to support all the project life-cycle activities

WEB enabled: all functions available and workable with MS Internet Explorer browser


14

Why Puma5 is competitive

Developed on the basis of requirements from the major main contracting companies working mainly on EPC contracts

Complete management of components, attributes and quantities during all the phases (Spc, MTO, P.Orders, Construction)

Very high penetration among Italian plant layout companies (..it is a … de facto std)

Low costs (“n” times lower than the other available systems)

Tested and consolidated, it has been successfully utilised on hundreds projects

Very fast learning rate, immediate investment return, very high cost/benefit ratio
