Commissioning marks the transition from construction to operation — a complex phase where schedules are tight and mistakes costly. UDiTH supports commissioning teams by visualizing systems, structuring workflows, and connecting tasks to the digital twin. This reduces manual effort, speeds up handover, and ensures a safer, more reliable startup.

The Challenge

Commissioning is often underestimated:

  • Multiple disciplines need to align on system completions, flushing, leak tests, safety checks, and documentation.
  • Traditionally, tasks are tracked across spreadsheets, paper markups, or copies of engineering documents.
  • Inconsistencies and missing updates create delays and errors at the very moment when time pressure is highest.

The result: additional rework, compromised safety, and costly startup delays.

The UDiTH Solution

UDiTH integrates commissioning into the digital twin:

  • System Completion

    Define and visualize commissioning systems directly in the model, across all relevant documents.

  • Data Integration

    Connect engineering data, tags, equipment, and test records in one environment.

  • Workflows

    Use UDiTH Toolkit to assign, track, and close commissioning tasks across teams and contractors.

  • Transparency

    Commissioning status is always up to date, reducing manual markups and rework.

  • Safe Startup

    Digital documentation ensures all tests, isolations, and checklists are complete before handover.

Relevant UDiTH Capabilities

  • UDiTH Toolkit

    Manage commissioning tasks, workflows, and approvals.

  • Historian Insight

    Use live IoT data to validate and monitor system performance during startup.

  • Sketching

    Define commissioning boundaries or simulate modifications directly in 3D or P&IDs.

  • Markups

    Add quick annotations to highlight issues in models or documents.

  • Reports

    Generate reports for commissioning and handover in UDiTH, with easy Excel export.

  • Custom Attributes & Apps

    Define commissioning systems or extend UDiTH with dashboards and project-specific workflows and automations.

Benefits & KPIs – measurable impact

  • Faster System CompletionSystems, tags and test packs are defined and visualized directly in the model.Time to prepare commissioning packages reduced by up to 30%.
  • Real-Time StatusLive commissioning status per system replaces manually maintained tracking lists.Status reporting effort reduced by 40–60%.
  • Fewer Open Punch ItemsPunch lists and test records are linked to 3D objects and P&IDs.Open punch items at handover reduced by 20–30%.
  • Faster HandoverComplete digital documentation is available per system.Handover documentation compiled up to 50% faster.
  • Safer StartupTests, isolations and checklists are verified digitally before startup.100% traceable sign-offs for tests and isolations.
  • On-Time StartupFewer late surprises thanks to transparent progress across all disciplines.Startup delays reduced by up to 20%.
