Buro Matei’s Vision  Within the next decade, the role of engineers in the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) industry will undergo a dramatic transformation. Advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), automation, and digital tools like Virtual Reality (VR) and low-code platforms will revolutionize how engineers work. Yet this future is about more than technology—it’s about how

A New Era for Industrial Power Solutions  Objective  As industries increasingly seek reliable and sustainable energy sources, Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are emerging as a key solution. This article explores how SMRs are transforming the future of power for industrial projects, particularly in remote or off-grid locations. We will also examine the leading countries and

Supporting Global EPC Projects with Data-Driven Solutions  Buro Matei is currently working as a consultant for a major international client, assisting with large-scale industrial projects. From the client’s EAME headquarters near Amsterdam, Buro Matei supports project teams across the globe, including in the Netherlands, Philippines, India, and the USA. By providing strategic guidance and implementing

“Tracking Progress, Effort Hours, and Productivity in Power BI” Part Curves in Power BI: A Step-by-Step Guide to Creating 3-Part Curves Tracking project performance is critical in large-scale engineering and construction projects, where every hour and every action contribute to overall success or delay. A key way to monitor and manage this is by linking

Rethinking Model Reviews in EPC: A More Efficient Approach  In Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC), model reviews are vital for ensuring design quality and alignment across stakeholders. Traditionally, these reviews occur at three key stages: 30%, 60%, and 90% model completion. However, these checkpoints often create delays, rework, and inefficiencies, ultimately undermining project success. Buro

In Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) projects, delivering complex assets like industrial plants or infrastructure on time and within budget is always a challenge. Managing these assets effectively after construction is another. To tackle both, EPC firms are increasingly turning to Digital Twin technology. A Digital Twin is much more than a 3D model—it’s a

Buro Matei’s Data-Driven Approach In the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) industry, managing complex, large-scale projects requires precision, transparency, and constant oversight. One of the most reliable methods for monitoring project performance is the S-curve, a graphical tool used to display cumulative progress over time. At Buro Matei, we have redefined the traditional S-curve methodology

Modular construction is transforming the way large-scale EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) projects are executed. By shifting substantial portions of the construction process off-site, this method delivers clear advantages: work can be completed in a controlled environment, significantly reducing exposure to common risks like weather delays and labor shortages, while improving quality control. Modular construction

Capital projects in the oil and gas sector face delays and cost overruns. Engaged, proactive management and selecting the right contractors are crucial.

Buro Matei uses strategic automation to enhance efficiency and accuracy in EPC projects, ensuring timely delivery, reduced errors, and client confidence.

Enriching historical data with detailed attributes enhances project planning, making it more reliable and efficient. Engage with Buro Matei for data-driven execution.

AWP+ eliminates the need for package managers and software, streamlining project management through automated work packaging using existing tools for efficiency.

Facility owners in the petrochemical industry require CFIHOS compliant data for efficient operations, reducing conversion errors by integrating Digital Twins early.

By applying Lean Project Management principles focused on waste reduction, EPC projects can streamline processes, boost efficiency, and enhance team morale.

Six principles for effective data-driven project execution are goal focus, automation, single information source, zero rework, client success, and innovation.

A successful project should be defined by meeting the client’s goals: safely operating on time, within budget, and fulfilling functional requirements.

A data-driven approach can enhance efficiency in engineering by reducing revisions, streamlining workflows, and improving overall project execution.

Engineering and EPC firms improve productivity and profitability through a data-driven mindset, involving mindset transformation, data collection, and data visualization.
