Valero Energy Adopts Hexagon for Engineering Design
Valero Energy, an energy organization in the United States, uses Hexagon PPM from Hexagon to support engineering design for design engineers.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for product design |
| Capability | Engineering design stays visible to adjacent teams through Hexagon PPM |
| Capability | Design engineers work from the same Hexagon PPM record for product design |
Story
Inside Valero Energy, engineering design used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in energy groups working out of the United States. Design engineers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Valero Energy uses Hexagon PPM from Hexagon as the working layer for product design. Hexagon provides digital reality and industrial software for measurement, design, and operations in manufacturing and geospatial work. The practical change is simple: engineering design has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Valero Energy gets from Hexagon is a durable place to run engineering design and a way for design engineers to see the same product design at the same time.
