The Engineering Asset Reality Layer

Every tag.
Every document.
Every connection.
One place. One truth.

We digitize your P&IDs and engineering drawings, extract every tag and instrument automatically, connect them to their source documents, and deliver a living knowledge graph of your plant.

The Problem

Engineering data has often been
the missing layer between
your drawings and your operations.

Industrial plants generate enormous amounts of engineering data across their entire lifecycle. P&IDs, datasheets, equipment records, maintenance plans, inspection histories, it all exists. The challenge is that it has never been connected. A tag on a P&ID has no automatic link to its datasheet. A valve in the field has no direct connection to its maintenance history. An equipment record in the ERP has no relationship to the drawing it came from. Each system holds a piece of the picture. No system holds the whole picture. This disconnection is not a failure of technology or people. It is simply how industrial data has always been structured in layers, by discipline, across systems that were never designed to talk to each other. PNID.IO connects those layers. Every tag. Every document. Every system. One coherent, queryable picture of your plant that your entire organisation can build on.

This is not a software problem. It is a data trust problem. And it shows up in every shutdown, every inspection, every handover.

01

Data lives in silos

P&IDs, datasheets, maintenance plans, inspection records each document exists in isolation. No system connects them by tag. Engineers cross-reference manually, and no one fully trusts any single source.

02

Engineers spend hours on verification

A single tag verification can take hours when it requires opening four documents across three systems. Multiply that across 10,000 tags and the scale of the problem becomes clear.

03

Decisions made on incomplete information

Operations, integrity and maintenance teams make daily decisions on data they cannot fully verify. Every shutdown, inspection and handover carries this uncertainty.

Statistics reflect cross-industry knowledge worker research. In brownfield plant environments the impact is compounded by legacy documentation, multiple revision states and disconnected systems.
The engineering data problem is not a technology gap It is a complexity gap. Plants evolve faster than documentation can keep up. Over time, even the best-maintained drawing sets carry uncertainty.
How It Works

PNID.IO's
4C Framework.

We find it. We trust it. The algorithm connects it. You use it.

STEP 01 — CAPTURE

We find it. Any format.
Any condition.

Upload your P&IDs, PFDs and engineering documents in any format. PNID.IO ingests them as they are. No preparation. No templates. Scanned drawings and legacy PDFs are instantly processed.

  • Zero manual template setup
  • Native support for poor quality scans
STEP 02 — CORRECT

We trust it.
With human oversight.

Our algorithm extracts every tag, instrument, and line with exceptional accuracy. The drawing board lets your engineers rapidly validate, correct, and approve the output before it becomes operational data.

  • Up to 90% out-of-the-box accuracy
  • Intuitive visual validation interface
STEP 03 — CONNECT

The algorithm.
Connects the dots.

Tags are matched automatically to corresponding documents—datasheets, maintenance plans, and bills of materials. Connections happen at ingestion based on tag identity, with zero manual spreadsheet mapping.

  • Cross-document automatic linking
  • Builds a continuous knowledge graph
STEP 04 — CONSUME

You use it.
Your data. Your systems. Your format.

Your validated, connected engineering data is exported in the format your downstream systems actually need. Feed your ERP, your asset management platform, your knowledge graph, or your own analytics layer. Open standard. Vendor neutral. No lock-in.

  • DEXPI, Excel, JSON and XML output
  • Direct Neo4j ingestion for graph queries
The Knowledge Graph

From static drawings
to a living model of your plant.

Every asset in your plant has a relationship to other assets, to documents, to operating conditions and to its history. PNID.IO captures those relationships and builds them into a navigable, queryable knowledge graph.

Navigate from any equipment item to every instrument and valve connected to it. Query across your entire asset base without opening a single drawing.

Sample Node Types
Node types will expand as more asset classes are added.

Tag-based automatic linking

Every tag extracted from every document is matched and connected automatically. One tag, Every document that references it. One graph. No spreadsheet, no manual mapping, no errors.

PFD to P&ID connectivity

Stream IDs, operating conditions and CML markings from your PFDs enrich every connected P&ID asset node automatically. Cross-drawing connections built in at ingestion.

DEXPI output. Neo4j ingestion.

Open standard DEXPI format export, ingested into Neo4j. Vendor neutral. Query at plant, system, line or instrument level in seconds.

Real-time query. Instant answers.

What equipment does the Pump V-1005 feed into? The graph answers in seconds what used to take hours of cross-referencing multiple documents.

What You Get

Five things that change
when your engineering
data is trusted.

PNID.IO doesn't just digitize drawings. It gives you a data layer your entire organization can build on.

01

A single source of truth

One place where every tag, document and connection lives. Validated by your engineers. Updated as your plant changes. The first time your engineering data can actually be trusted.

02

Every tag linked automatically

Every instrument, valve and equipment item connected to every document that references it. No manual mapping. Connections happen at ingestion and stay current as data is updated.

03

A queryable plant model

Ask questions across your entire asset base. What is upstream of PSV-11006A? Which CML locations are on high-temperature lines? The knowledge graph answers in seconds, not hours.

04

Structured output for any system

DEXPI-format export ready for SAP, Maximo, AVEVA or any asset management system. Open standard. Vendor neutral. Your data structured the way downstream systems actually need it.

05

Operations you can trust

Every shutdown, inspection and handover built on data that has been validated and connected. The uncertainty in your engineering data becomes visible — and manageable — for the first time.

Who It's For

Built for the people
Who depend on
Engineering data being right.

Two major types of organizations live with this problem every day. PNID.IO solves it for both.

Owner-Operators
Refineries Petrochemical plants Desalination LNG terminals Power generation More...

You own the plant. You carry the risk when data is wrong.

Your plant has been operating for years maybe decades. Every modification, revamp and capital project has added a layer of uncertainty between your drawings and your physical plant. PNID.IO gives you a data layer you can actually trust.

Operations decisions built on verified data
Faster shutdowns and inspections
Integrity management grounded in reality
A single source of truth your team can rely on
EPCs and SIs
Engineering contractors Systems integrators Asset handover specialists Digital transformation consultants More...

Your clients expect digital deliverables alongside the physical asset.

The expectation from owner-operators is shifting. A handover today means not just drawings and documents but connected, structured, queryable data. PNID.IO gives you the capability to deliver a knowledge graph as part of every project.

Digital deliverables that go beyond document packs
Knowledge graph as a commercial differentiator
Faster project data validation
Client retention through ongoing data management

Why PNID.IO Exists

Every industrial plant runs on engineering data.

Much of that data sits in disconnected documents

Much of it has never been fully connected.

Over time, it becomes difficult to know what can be relied upon.

We built PNID.IO to change that.

Not a digitization tool. Not a document manager. Not a CMMS add-on. A purpose-built layer that sits between your raw engineering documents and the operational systems that need to rely on them.

The Engineering Asset Reality Layer. It finds your data, validates it with your engineers, connects every tag to every document that references it, and delivers a structured, queryable knowledge graph your entire organisation can build on.

This is what PNID.IO does. And it is the only thing we do.

Find it: Every drawing. Every document. Every format.
Trust it: Validated by your engineers before it becomes data.
Connect it: Every tag linked to every document that references it.
Use it: Queryable.
Exportable: Ready for any downstream system.
