Ulysta Pipeline Manager enables you to do cross-discipline validation of 2D and 3D engineering data
Pipeline Manager – Centralized Control for Piping Design and Review
Pipeline Manager is a browser-based software solution that provides a centralized repository for cooperative pipeline design, review, and quality assurance. It enables engineering teams to manage piping data consistently across P&IDs, isometrics, and 3D plant models, ensuring transparency, traceability, and control throughout the entire project lifecycle.
One Source of Truth for Piping Data
Pipeline Manager introduces automatic, centralized version control for piping designs. Every change to drawings or data is versioned transparently, allowing teams to answer critical questions instantly:
- When was this change introduced?
- Which version contained a specific component?
- Is this really the latest and approved version?
Past development stages and the current project status remain clearly visible to all stakeholders – including distributed and remote teams.
Integrated 2D, 3D, and Logical Views
Pipeline Manager synchronizes schematics, isometrics, and 3D plant data in a single environment. Engineers can navigate piping systems hierarchically and seamlessly cross-reference different representations:
- Select a valve in a P&ID and instantly locate it in the 3D plant
- Identify the subsystem, topology, and function of any component
- Highlight selected elements automatically across all views
This multi-perspective navigation dramatically reduces time spent searching and interpreting complex drawings.
Powerful Change and Diff Analysis
With its side-by-side Diff Viewer, Pipeline Manager makes changes fully transparent:
- Graphical comparison of different P&ID versions
- Comparison of isometrics against P&IDs
- Visualization of logical and topological changes
- Clear identification of additions, deletions, and modifications
This ensures that every change is deliberate, complete, and correct – and that nothing is lost between revisions.
Progress Tracking and Quality Assurance
Pipeline Manager supports project progress tracking against defined targets and provides quality control across all data sources. By checking consistency between 2D, 3D, and logical representations, it helps teams detect errors early and continuously improve data quality as the project evolves.
Simple, Browser-Based Operation
- No client installation required – fully browser-based
- Usable on desktop, tablet, or mobile devices
- Simple data import (e.g. PCF, XML)
- Two-step creation and sharing of new piping versions
This makes Pipeline Manager easy to deploy and ideal for collaboration across organizations and locations.
