What is AVEVA E3D Design?
AVEVA E3D Design, part of AVEVA Unified Engineering, is a market leading 3D design software for complex industrial assets. By enabling multi-discipline collaboration in the cloud, AVEVA E3D Design gives teams the tools they need to maximize engineering and design while minimizing rework.
Data-centric, Multi-discipline 3D Engineering & Design
AVEVA E3D Design is the world’s most technologically advanced 3D design solution for the process plant, marine and power industries. It enables powerful visualization, clash-free, multi-discipline 3D design rapidly generates accurate drawings & reports to reduce costs, timescales & commercial risks of both greenfield and
brownfield capital projects.
The benefits of moving to cloud unified engineering
70% of major capital projects are 40% over budget and delivered 20 months late, which negatively impacts ROI. Explore how our cloud-based unified engineering solutions are helping owner-operators and EPCs deliver projects 20% faster, increasing engineering efficiency by 50% lowering TIC by 5%, with a 40% reduction in man-hours and a 5% reduction in rework, due to fewer errors.

Benefits
Greater engineering efficiency
Integrated engineering, design, and simulation data in a data-centric model of your plant allows designers to identify and resolve clashes between disciplines.
Superior change management
The software simplifies project management with detailed change history and real-time visibility of multidiscipline updates, including changes to linked schematics and datasheets.
Reduced engineering rework
By designing alongside all disciplines from a single data-centric environment, you can comprehensively detect clashes to eliminate costly on-site rework in the design stage.
Features
Import and design with laser scan technology
AVEVA E3D Design users can both import and interact with data from any laser scanner, including traditional static scanners and mobile, airborne, and hand-held devices from a wide variety of manufacturers.
Automatic cross-discipline updates
AVEVA E3D Design enables users to directly integrate data from AVEVA engineering and schematics tools. Project updates in either AVEVA E3D Design, or linked schematics tools, trigger alerts directly within the tools for their respective teams to implement.
Generate reports and drawings from the 3D model
The software allows users to automatically generate drawings and reports directly from the 3D model, saving time and ensuring that construction uses validated, up-to-date information.
Verify construction alongside design intent
With integrated photorealistic laser scan data in the design environment, users can intuitively and accurately plan modification, design, and construction status verification against the design intent as construction progresses.
Automatic cable routing
AVEVA E3D Design integrates with electrical discipline capabilities as part of AVEVA™ Unified Engineering. Users can share cable data from the electrical schematics tools to facilitate accurate routing of cables according to configurable design rules and accurate cable lengths.
Apply Sørco achieves 30% reduction in design time
The EPC firm uses laser scan technology and AVEVA E3D Design to engineer more efficiently. The firm can now win contracts with clients demanding lower project costs.
How can you use AVEVA E3D Design as part of AVEVA Unified Engineering?
Simplify complex capital projects
AVEVA E3D Design allows global, multi-discipline teams to work collaboratively on the same project data at the same time. This ensures fewer errors and design clashes across disciplines as design intent down to pipe structure can be verified against the model.
Generate drawings based on designs
The software allows teams to rapidly generate accurate drawings and deliverables directly from the design, which are updated in real time alongside the design.
Digitize project compliance
AVEVA E3D Design lets users configure design rules and contractual requirements with change highlighting, tracking and status management to streamline compliance.
