Streamline Data Access with SPGS’s Engineering Tag Extraction Services

Efficient project delivery and safe, reliable plant operations rely on trustworthy engineering data and documentation. Yet, EPCs and owner-operators often face the challenge of managing large volumes of unstructured data, such as documents, drawings, lists, and datasheets in various formats. SPGS’s Engineering Tag Extraction Services simplify information retrieval by indexing tags, saving time and enabling quick navigation to relevant data.

Why Tag Extraction is Essential

In operating plants, employees in specific areas are familiar with engineering tag numbers, but additional information—like datasheets, installation details, connected items, isolation procedures, and maintenance protocols—may not be readily accessible. Our tag-centric approach indexes tag numbers and links them to corresponding drawings and documents, creating a centralized data repository that provides all relevant information at a glance.

Engineering Tag Extraction Process

Our team meticulously captures tags from each drawing or document, manually validating tag information to ensure accuracy. Unlike automated tools that may overlook data due to image quality, tag aliases, or complex naming conventions, SPGS’s approach involves expert engineers who analyze and logically categorize tags to maintain data reliability.

Once tag data is captured, it’s classified according to the client’s specifications. Tags can be sorted into categories such as Equipment, Instrument, Pipeline, Piping Specialty Item, Electrical Equipment, or as needed. Further validation is performed against equipment lists, line lists, or instrument indexes to ensure precision.

Preparing Data for Integration

Our indexed tag data can be loaded into information management systems or engineering document management platforms, such as SmartPlant Foundation or ProjectWise. Many owner-operators require indexed tag relationships as part of project handovers, often in specific templates or database formats. SPGS provides this data in the required format, ensuring it meets all guidelines and enhances the handover process for EPCs.

Expert Support for Tag Relationship Data

In cases where project deliveries lack tag relationship data, SPGS can support the plant’s IT or data management teams by creating plant-specific tag-document relationships, improving document accessibility and saving time for plant employees. With years of experience in indexing services, SPGS is a reliable partner for generating high-accuracy tag data.
