The Role of PUMA+ in Commissioning
Moving Beyond Spreadsheets in Modern Plant Commissioning
In any large-scale project, moving from construction to operation is one of the most critical phases. Ensuring that thousands of inspection records are co-ordinated and collated effectively to eliminate data gaps, disconnected spreadsheets and human error is no mean feat and can potentially lead to costly oversights.
To mitigate this, MCCS developed PUMA+, a bespoke and specialised commissioning software, designed to bring real-time visibility, full traceability and data integrity to both onshore and offshore facilities.
Whether you choose to engage MCCS’s specialist engineering teams or subscribe to PUMA+ as a standalone platform, the software ensures your asset moves smoothly from construction through to startup.
PUMA+ is the result of years of R&D, testing and perfecting the system. The ecosystem of Puma+ is constantly evolving with user-friendly features that make managing data easy and convenient for engineers across divisions, aimed at providing seamless solutions for industries requiring precise coordination and meticulous management.
Designed to bridge the structural gap between construction teams who build by geographical area and commissioning engineers who test by functional systems. Built on years of experience across major international energy projects, this commissioning software organises data around functional subsystems to ensure alignment across disciplines, including mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation teams.
This allows for complete project visibility at every critical stage leading to start-up.
Features of PUMA+ Commissioning Software
With the use of PUMA+, your engineering teams are equipped with practical tools to streamline the many complex tasks undertaken, providing standardised logs and QA/QC compliant documentation throughout the commissioning and pre-commissioning process.
Discover how PUMA+ can revolutionise your commissioning completion management and drive project success.
Integrated Joint Integrity (JI) Calculator: This computes the exact torque and bolt tension values automatically based on the gasket type, bolt grade, and flange pressure ratings, increasing efficiency and reducing paper trails.
Explore how PUMA+ can optimise your leak test management workflows and elevate your testing capabilities.
Integrated Flange Management Software: This will log every joint with a unique identifier, tracking component batch numbers, the technician identity, the assembly history, and applied torque values. The PUMA+ flange management software module can simplify and streamline flange management processes, ensuring compliance, safety, and efficiency.
