SmartPlant® Materials is the Intergraph® integrated life-cycle material and supply chain and subcontracting management solution. It provides a common collaboration platform and project workbench for all partners in any engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) project supply chain.
SmartPlant Materials helps to lower project costs, compress schedules, improve risk management, and enable companies to act globally to maintain advantage in a highly complex, international, and competitive market. From initial cost estimation through the supply chain to on-site management, SmartPlant Materials handles materials standardization, bills of materials and requisitions, procurement functions, fabrication tracking, and site functions, such as warehousing and disposition. New comprehensive subcontracting functionality that covers all the way from planning to progress management is now available.
The only complete, commercially available materials management and subcontracting solution, SmartPlant Materials is a real project workbench for all material and subcontract-related activities. It spans the entire project life cycle, and enables you to focus on corporate project objectives rather than departmental or discipline-specific goals. SmartPlant Materials uses the latest information technology to provide you with a high degree of flexibility, scalability, and easy integration into existing systems and workflows. Each department or function can simply access whatever materials data is needed for a specific material-related task, in the format most appropriate to that task.
