Siemens Energy
How Siemens Energy transformed their engineering process
Siemens Energy faced a critical challenge: managing and synchronizing vast amounts of engineering data across disciplines and locations. Traditional reliance on spreadsheets led to fragmented workflows, outdated information, and collaboration hurdles—especially as projects scaled in size and complexity. The need for a centralized, robust solution became clear as the company sought to ensure reliable energy delivery worldwide.
Creating the Plant Asset Manager (PAM)
To address these challenges, Siemens Energy developed the Plant Asset Manager (PAM), a tool designed to centralize and streamline asset data management. As PAM’s adoption grew, so did its technical demands. That’s when KDAB joined the journey, adding deep Qt expertise and industry best practices. KDAB guided a comprehensive architectural refactor, engineered high-performance custom data models, and introduced modular UI components using KDDockWidgets, an advanced docking solution for Qt applications. The result: PAM became faster, more scalable, and easier to use, with seamless offline capabilities and robust version control powered by Git.
Empowering Engineers and Accelerating Innovation
With KDAB’s support, Siemens Energy transformed PAM into a future-ready platform. Engineers now enjoy direct access to project history, customizable workspaces, and reliable offline operation—even in the most remote locations. PAM’s modern architecture and engineering discipline ensure it remains adaptable for evolving needs, empowering Siemens Energy to deliver on its mission: making energy available wherever and whenever it’s needed.
