Overview
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
2003 first exposure to AVEVA PDMS
Through Kvaerner on a 63.4 MW power plant project
2004 first PDMS project
Why PDMS?
Impressive Capabilities
Project requirements
Transitional growing pains
Executed a successful project
Throughout the process we began to understand the
advantages PDMS made available
7
Our Journey
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
Continued with PDMS until 2015 when we made the leap
to E3D
Many reasons for upgrading
Value
○ Laser scan integration
○ Analytics
Increased Visualization
○ Graphics
○ BubbleView
8
Our Journey
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
$65 Million, Design/Build
Heating plant upgrades
First PDMS project
Time/Cost savings
Fabrication ready
documents
Eliminated need for
additional subcontractors
9
University of Virginia
Successfully completed
under budget
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
$6.75 Million, Design/Bid/Build
Chiller replacement
Fast tracked schedule
Time/Cost savings
Direct fabrication from design docs
Construction team coordination
Able to meet project time constraints
Project moved up one year, more efficient units in service sooner
10% under budget!

Texas Tech University
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
$1.5 Million, Design/Bid/Build
Power plant fan screen enclosureson a 750 MW unit
On going project
Time/Cost savings Fabrication ready documents
Laser scanning
Visualization Most plant personnel not apart of design meetings
○ Need on site, not in the conference room
○ Their interactions with the design contribute to the projects success or failure
Evaluate and narrow options early in the design process
11
Kansas City Power & Light
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
$15 Million, CMAR
New chiller plant
Coordination in tight spaces
Program plan allocated:
1.18 tons per sq ft of cooling
Able to achieve:
1.40 tons per sq ft of cooling
16% increase in tons per sq
ft!
5% under budget!
12
Kansas State University
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
$12 Million,
Design/Bid/Build
Power plant addition
13
Falls City Nebraska
Ongoing project
Time/Cost savings

Projects Successfully Completed
with only 2 seats of PDMS/E3D!!!
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
“With equipment, conduit, and piping completely laid out before the project, we were able to visualize placement of the entire project including walk paths before a single weld was ever made”
“Coordinating the existing plant with the future equipment, we were able to utilize in-house labor to move or remove obstructions before it was delivered on site. This minimized the cost of outsourced labor and allowed the plant to schedule any interruptions of service to times that least affected our customers”
“Allowed coordination between disciplines such as equipment installer, structural workers, electricians, plumbers, insulation installers, and painters resulting in the overall process of the installation become more fluid”
15
Clients View
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
“If changes in plans were required, the 3D model could be used to work ahead of the on-site contractor to limit extra costs and time requirements”
“With every angle and length accurately measured, fabrication of piping mostly occurred at the fab shop resulting in higher quality welds, cleaner pipe, and the safety of working on the ground versus 30 feet in the air cannot be over-emphasized”
“Allowed plant personnel to visualize the future and the long-term goal resulting in higher levels of motivation and increased productivity”

Clients View
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
PDMS/E3D is designed for big environments
Can be efficiently used on a smaller scale
Collaboration
Coordination across disciplines and team
members
Data integration
○ Vendor info (global, datal, stp)
○ Laser Scanning
Single source allows quick and accurate distribution of information
Analytics
Interface with analysis programs such as STAAD & AutoPIPE17
Utilization
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
Visualization
Laser scanning and BubbleView
Quickly and efficiently evaluate design
○ Model reviews
○ Eliminate design options early
Operations & maintenance staff buy-in
Marketing
Clients want 3D/intelligent data yet don’t always recognize the
advantages; our job to show them
Demonstrate our design capabilities early and often
18
Utilization
Lutz, Daily & Brain, LLCConsulting Engineers
Generate enough ROI to justify the total investment
Efficiency
