A gas processing facility implementing Fiix as their CMMS faced the most labor-intensive step of the project: building the Functional Location Hierarchy for a newly constructed plant.

This case study covers how 155 AutoCAD P&IDs were processed through the Intelligent Drawing Platform, with highlighted process systems guiding the hierarchy breakdown. The plant's complete Functional Location Hierarchy was structured in five business days, validated visually against the drawings, and exported into the CMMS data structure — 5,900 asset tags across fixed assets, rotating equipment, instruments, relief devices, and piping.

The result: implementation time cut by an order of magnitude, with accuracy guaranteed by direct extraction from the drawings rather than manual takeoff.

The same drawing-first approach applies wherever a facility needs structured asset data fast: CMMS migrations, IDMS implementations, commissioning system inventories, and predictive analytics enablement. Teams running similar mechanical integrity or CMMS projects can apply the identical method through our data consulting services — no manual takeoff, no transcription errors, no stale spreadsheets.
