WEC Energy Adopts AVEVA for Engineering Design
WEC Energy, a utilities organization in the United States, uses APM from AVEVA to support engineering design for design engineers.
APM sits in the daily path at WEC Energy, especially for design engineers.
“In the United States, design engineers already knew where product design went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.”
“AVEVA, part of Schneider Electric, provides industrial software for engineering, operations, and real-time data, including the PI System.”

Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Capability | Design engineers work from the same APM record for product design |
| Capability | Product design can be reviewed without waiting on a personal export |
| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for product design |
Story
WEC Energy did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed engineering design to move. In the United States, design engineers already knew where product design went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
APM from AVEVA is now in that path. AVEVA, part of Schneider Electric, provides industrial software for engineering, operations, and real-time data, including the PI System. The company treats it as production tooling for engineering design, which is why design engineers live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
WEC Energy can show how product design is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run engineering design on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
