    In enterprises where another project is tailored to the needs of the client rather than using basic tools. And where the estimate requires comprehensive cost buckets for production operations. When there is a large amount of purchasing history to enter into AspenONE Engineering in order for it to provide reliable projections. Standard equipment manufacturing enterprises are not well suited. Also, because this instrument requires time, when there are time limitation and resource or human limitations.

    If you have many different DCSs or PLCs in your manufacturing plant, OSIsoft PI System does the job quite well to integrate all different types of sources and data. We have Yokogawa, Mitsubishi, Hitachi, and Azbil DCS and PLC. Connecting them is not a problem.

    We began assessing several tools when we began estimating for a full process plant or various styles of equipment. We also investigated implementing an ERP system used by the sales and item engineering departments.

    Good local support. The only issue is that there are not many system integrators that are well versed with OSIsoft. The implementation is also very costly.

    Alternatives Considered
    Aspen Technology
    Again answering from the ACCE perspective (Estimating tool) - Previously when we did estimates for simple equipment we had used excel estimates and lotus reporting. However, as we started estimating for an entire process plant or various style of equipment, we had started evaluating various tools. We had also considered using an ERP system that is utilized by Purchasing and Product Engineering teams, however, ACCE seemed a better fit for the amount of detailed estimating needed. And the robustness and various options available made us select this tool.

    Return on Investment
    Aspen Technology
    • Investment apart from the cost of tool, is time - It is very time taking to obtain the results required
    • We are being trained by a professional consultant on ACCE, and yet to see the ROI
    • Detailed estimates as needed by Product Engineering is a plus

    • Real-time data
    • We don't require constant updates during crisis from a technician who usually will update to BCP team via WhatsApp.
