Mining

dad is used on projects of all sizes, from Fortescue’s $4 billion Iron Bridge magnetite project to smaller ventures where engineering consultants handle minor modifications. Both asset owners and service providers leverage dad to achieve exceptional results.

Fortescue adopted dad on the Solomon Project for all Power, Control and Communications Systems engineering. dad was used successfully by all our plant contractors and resulted in accurate designs at much lower cost. It also reduced site rework and commissioning.

Energy

From upgrading existing facilities like the Baltic Pipe Project – EPII Terminal Nybro in the North Sea to greenfield projects such as the Jazan Oil Refinery in Saudi Arabia, dad is used by global clients including Hitachi, Energia, Ørsted, and others.

Being a system modelling environment somewhat analogous to BIM for structures, it was clear (dad’s) efficiency gains would be no less profound for our business… There is no question that for future projects of any significant size that I have influence over, they will be designed in dad from the outset. The benefits simply cannot be ignored.

Rail

dad is used on new and existing major rail projects including by clients, AtkinsRéalis on the Eglinton Crosstown Project, Honeywell on the Auckland City Rail Link and by the Public Transport Authority of Western Australia on the greater Perth Metronet.

…a hugely powerful tool that has allowed us to manage a large amount of information at many levels of detail.

Roads

From Main Roads Western Australia, that use dad as the master platform for operating their systems, to Transport for NSW, that employ dad for intelligent traffic management and to replace obsolete communication technology. dad is used by asset owners and service providers in the roads sector to engineer and manage the fibre optic networks that power traffic management systems.

dad has been the tool of choice as a system representation database for our scope of our state government telecommunications delivery program.

Manufacturing

Well-designed and managed complex systems are crucial for efficient and productive manufacturing facilities. Our clients in the manufacturing sector, such as Wesfarmers Chemicals, Energy & Fertilisers, and Coogee Chemicals, utilise dad to engineer and manage both new and existing facilities.

As a plant Engineer working on numerous electrical projects at Koppers I am very happy with our purchase and would recommend the system to other users in my situation. The recently completed project (using dad) will now become the benchmark to which Koppers will work with all electrical project documentation.
