Information spread across systems. Context in one place.
Industrial facilities operate with engineering information spread across document management systems, historians, ERP platforms, and shared drives. When a safety incident occurs, a maintenance investigation begins, or an engineering change is assessed, teams need that information immediately.
Assai Viewport brings engineering information from existing systems together, making it easier to find, understand, and use. Engineers search once and see everything: the P&ID, linked tags, live sensor values, open work orders, and maintenance data, without switching between systems
See beyond individual systems
Assai Viewport automatically connects equipment tags, P&IDs, live sensor values, maintenance data, and related documentation across your existing systems, creating a connected view of engineering information.
Understand information before acting on it
Assai Viewport provides the context needed to understand whether information is relevant, complete, and current before it is used in engineering, maintenance, or operations. Helping teams reduce uncertainty and make more confident decisions.
Identify gaps before they impact work
By connecting information across systems, Assai Viewport makes gaps visible early. Teams can identify missing documentation, conflicting tag data, outdated drawings, and broken links before they affect engineering work, safety, or compliance.
Work with data as it actually exists
Engineering data is rarely complete or perfectly aligned. Assai Viewport helps teams work with the information they have today, providing a single searchable view across legacy documents, drawings, and operational information without requiring perfect data.
Three capabilities. One connected picture.
Assai Viewport doesn’t replace your existing systems. It reads across all of them and surfaces what you need.
01
Find information in context
Type a tag or asset ID and immediately access connected P&IDs, maintenance history, sensor values, and open work orders. Legacy drawings become searchable and easier to navigate.
- Interactive, tag-linked P&IDs in seconds
- Search legacy drawings and scanned documents
- Every tag links to live operational context
02
See the full picture
Work orders, permits, maintenance data, engineering drawings, and live process values are available in context, helping teams understand what is happening around an asset without switching between systems.
- Engineering and operational systems in context
- No system replacement required
- 140+ supported data formats
03
Identify information gaps
Assai Viewport helps teams identify missing documentation, conflicting references, outdated information, and hidden dependencies before they affect engineering work, safety, or compliance.
- Identify missing or conflicting information
- Connect engineering information in context
- Detect issues before they impact work

Validation delays
Incident reported
A catastrophic failure of UPS-1108 forces production to stop. OMAR requests manuals, work orders, certificates, P&IDs, connection diagrams, and operator logbooks.
Initial response
Operations, Maintenance, Engineering, HSE, and Management start collecting information from multiple systems and repositories.
Several days later
An initial information package is assembled, but conflicting document versions require additional validation.
Day 11
OMAR receives the validated information set and starts the post-mortem analysis.
Day 13
UPS-1108 is replaced and production resumes. Updated SOPs remain difficult to distribute consistently across similar assets.

All information related to UPS-1108 is available through a single search across connected systems.
Same day
A validated information package is securely shared with OMAR.
Same day
OMAR and the operator work from the same trusted information set to begin the post-mortem analysis.
Day 1

Manual planning
Morning planning starts
Operations, Maintenance, and Contractors gather to plan the day’s activities using SAP PM, PI System data, and paper P&IDs.
3,500 work orders reviewed
Work activities are assessed across more than 1,400 P&IDs. Actions and dependencies are manually marked on drawings.
Conflicts identified
Potential conflicts between work orders and asset conditions must be found and resolved before execution can begin.
Planning approved
Operational management reviews the final plan before field work is authorised.
Work begins
After approximately two hours of planning, teams enter the field with manually marked-up P&IDs.
With Assai Viewport
Planning in context
Morning planning starts
SAP PM work orders, PI System data, and as-built P&IDs are available in a single environment.
Work orders in context
Work orders, asset information, and operational context are available directly from the P&ID, helping teams understand planned activities before work begins.
Conflicts highlighted
Potential conflicts and dependencies are identified automatically before work begins.
Planning approved
Teams work from a shared, validated view of planned activities and asset status.
Work begins
Field execution starts after approximately 20 minutes of planning.
