The Effect of Open Standard ISO 15926 on Future Software Development
Managing information across the lifecycle is a key issue for owner/operators, as data is locked into proprietary design formats. Business Advantage recently undertook a market research study examining the take-up and awareness levels of Open Standard ISO 15926 (Industrial automation systems and integration - Integration of life-cycle data for process plants, including oil and gas production facilities) within Europe, the Americas and Asia/Pacific.
ISO 15926 reinforces the benefits of interoperability - the ability to effortlessly transfer data within and between software packages, such as plant design software.
As awareness of ISO 15926 grows and uptake increases it is believed that collaboration will become easier and time and cost savings will follow.
We thought you might be interested to know:
- What is the impact of a lack of interoperability, and how can this affect you?
- What are the satisfaction levels and pain points with regards to proprietary data formats/interoperability?
- What is the current awareness and understanding of ISO 15926?
- What are the potential benefits of ISO 15926 data standards for plant design and management?
