Engineering system for electrical CAD design and documentation for electro-mechanical engineering and plant construction.

Engineering Base Power Transmission and Distribution (PTD) is a central, data-driven platform designed to streamline complex projects in power transmission and distribution. It supports all stakeholders – from operators and manufacturers to EPCs and suppliers – by enabling seamless engineering processes, from preliminary primary equipment planning to secondary systems, control cabinet design, and DCS configuration. The platform ensures compliance with international standards such as IEC 61850 and supports modern data exchange formats. At its core is a digital twin that always reflects the current as-built status, serving as the reliable single source of truth throughout the entire plant lifecycle.

The oil and gas industry is characterized by highly complex facilities. Production facilities, refineries, and plants for petrochemical end products have the highest demands on reliability and safety. High data quality is therefore all the more important – for the entire planning process as well as for the entire lifespan of the plant. Engineering Base was created precisely for this purpose: to develop a complete, consistent digital twin of a plant through interdisciplinary collaboration. It always displays the current status of all assets – for the development team, project managers, operators, and service personnel.

Projects in the process industry are characterized by high plant complexity and intense time and cost pressures. The crucial challenge is maintaining an overview of the enormous amounts of data involved in process engineering. Only then can all project stakeholders collaborate seamlessly to create the P&ID (Piping and Instrumentation Diagram). This diagram is the starting point for all further engineering disciplines. Every change must be traceable for all involved parties at any time. This is where Engineering Base comes in: the software platform offers collaborative, interdisciplinary, and integrated process engineering. The engineering software combines process, electrical, and automation data into a comprehensive digital twin.

Engineering Base Cable is a data-centric development and collaboration platform for electrical systems and optimized vehicle wiring. Visualizing and providing electrical data and documentation for service and manufacturing processes is also easily accomplished with the software. Engineering Base 's unique architecture and the years of experience of our AUCOTEC experts across all mobility sectors allow you to optimize your development, manufacturing, and service processes in terms of efficiency, flexibility, and quality. From automotive and aircraft to ships, rail vehicles, and special-purpose vehicles – Engineering Base Cable can be used in the development of any mobile system. Whether on land, water, or in the air!
