General
Emerson provides solutions and services that cover the full plant life cycle from design/build to connectivity/integration to improving asset utilization and production to sustaining and maintenance.

Emerson employs information technology professionals with significant experience in the delivery of integrated systems for oil and gas, hydrocarbon processing, power, chemicals, life sciences, pulp and paper, food and beverage and other process industries. We have been consulting and implementing solutions for our clients in the areas of automation, information technology and enterprise integration for over 25 years.

Leveraging the strong foundation of the smart digital PlantWeb architecture, we provide connectivity services for integrated enterprise architectures, engineering management, production management and asset management.  

Consulting and Concept Studies
When it comes to improving business performance in real time, it is often the case that companies do not have the necessary skills or resources to even specify what systems and technology are required to be able to make the significant business improvements they seek.

Emerson’s Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) team provides skilled consultants that will come into your plant to supplement your own capabilities.  We will audit your current systems, consider your processes, people, and business objectives and prepare a detailed report, which shows performance improvement areas and the technologies, and systems that should be applied to achieve quantifiable business results.

Emerson asks their clients before beginning a project what data management objectives they are trying to achieve.  We can help ensure the project plan is sound with minimal risk, within budget and time constraints, and defined for safe implementation.  These consulting services will help to ensure that our clients achieve optimal process performance and maximize the return on investments.  

FEED / Detailed Engineering and Design
Emerson has detailed core processes and complimentary in-house developed project tools for the planning, front-end engineering, detailed design and engineering, implementation, delivery, and completion stages of project implementation.  These processes provide Emerson teams worldwide with the consistency and quality necessary for on-time, on-budget delivery to the client’s complete satisfaction.

A FEED study results in a well-defined scope for the rest of the project, which in turn results in a more accurate estimate, lower contingency, and typically lower overall project costs.  The effort and upfront cost of the FEED delivers major benefits, as this is work that would otherwise be done in the first 10-25% of detailed engineering. The resulting “blue print” is further refined during the detailed design phase of the project.

The schedule is defined and the project planned from start to finish including resource requirements and hardware procurement.  With project staff alignment, business drivers and constraints defined, the project risk is identified and minimized.  Business management can proceed with full disclosure of opportunities to mitigate risk and/or project alternatives.  

Implementation
Experience and expertise are crucial for a successful project.  Our global engineering process utilizes best engineering practices and standards to ensure consistent implementation of data management projects.  As an example of our experience, we have implemented millions of OSIsoft PI tags, 3000+ clients, and 350+ servers.

Standards: Integration and Interoperability

Global After Sale Support
Emerson is financially strong and continues to invest a significantly into R&D.  Emerson is also globally established including the after sale infrastructure to support over 10,000 DeltaV process control system installations.  This infrastructure includes data management, applications, and integration solutions.  Whether you need an update, upgrade, or training, Emerson is there.

PlantWeb
For those clients with Emerson’s smart digital PlantWeb architecture, PlantWeb uses open communication standards to link field intelligence, systems, and applications in a plant-wide network that delivers information when and where it's needed.  Open, industry-proven communication standards let you select the best components to meet your needs, integrate them with other plant and business systems, and add more products or capabilities in the future.

What value is high-level management system's integration if the data it is based on is flawed or unverified? Valid data is important because every decision and every action is only as good as the information it's based on, from basic to advanced control and optimization, from maintenance scheduling to enterprise-level production planning.  With PlantWeb, those decisions and actions are based on validated information that comes from the heart of your operation, the plant floor - valves, instruments, pumps, motors, and process equipment.  The plant floor data is integrated and analyzed into actionable information by our systems and software.

Access to information opens up many opportunities to run a plant more efficiently. For example, a continuous production plant may take several days to come back online after an unexpected shutdown, causing a significant financial impact. Today’s intelligent instruments can report problems through the digital
