John Maciejewski INPO New Plant Configuration Management Development and Implementation Process June 29, 2009
New Plant Configuration Management Development and Implementation Process • Reasons for development: • INPO AP-929 developed based on modifications/changes to an existing plant • Extensive use of computer technology for new plant deployment • Benchmarking international projects revealed significant use of computer technology in providing CM • Recommendations from several CNO’s • Use by other industries of relational databases to control information
New Plant Configuration Management Development and Implementation Process • Document sections: • Configuration management program attributes • Process description is for new plant deployment (not operation) • Includes incorporating information needed for operation and a description of linking information using relational databases
New Plant Configuration Management Development and Implementation Process • Concepts • CM development starts early in the design phase • Design is essentially complete prior to construction • Computer technology is used extensively in design ( 3-D model, data bases) • Computer technology supports development of a detailed design that can be built. • The plant is built as designed. Changes are only made because of errors in design.
New Plant Configuration Management Development and Implementation Process • CM attributes for pre-commercial operation • A listing of CM attributes for design and construction that will enable establishment of effective CM
New Plant Configuration Management Development and Implementation Process • Process elements: • Determine CM scope and information • Establish an electronic platform and standard format • Electronically link related information • Enter information into the computer • Produce information for construction • Build the plant per the design (correct errors only) • Turnover the computer databases and physical plant to COL holder
New Plant Configuration Management Development and Implementation Process • Using the component designator as the common relationship • Using a common electronic platform/framework, design information can be linked electronically to the related components and other related information using the component designator. • For example the component designator (e. g., MOV-XX) is the common relationship for relating information. • Design information and information based on design information should be linked.
Summary • An INPO document for new plant CM development and implementation is in preparation • Concepts are based on CM lessons learned and recent benchmarking • Incorporates computer technology as a tool for CM
