Material Traceability & Quality Control
MatriX supports all aspects of Material Traceability and Quality Control on major engineering and fabrication projects via a modern single database multi-user platform that may be accessed locally or globally. Read More...
Material Takeoff / Bill Of Materials
Effective materials management is an essential part of all engineering, fabrication and construction projects, starting with the critical requirement to accurately define all required material items and estimate the associated construction and fabrication man hours.
MatriX uses a modular approach to satisfy this initial requirement and caters for all major disciplines (piping, structural, architectural, mechanical, E&I, HVAC, etc.). Read More...
Project Estimating
Responding to tenders for project work, completing tender documents and developing an accurate and complete estimate of a proposed workscope can be an extremely expensive and time consuming necessity.
MatriX contains project estimating modules and functionality that minimises the time taken to develop an estimate whilst increasing estimating accuracy and providing maximum control and flexibility over the estimating process. Read More...
Procurement / Supply Chain Management
Procurement is at the centre of the supply chain management process and the MatriX procurement module provides effective materials management and control across the complete supply chain and procurement cycle.
All procurement functions are fully supported including requisitioning, request for quotation (RFQ/ITT), procurement planning, procurement information maintenance, generating purchase orders, vendor agreements, expediting, goods receiving, accounts payable, parts catalogue, vendor management and more. Read More...
Stock Control / Inventory Management
Comprehensive inventory and stock control is a prime requirement when progressing and controlling construction and fabrication projects. It is imperative that material is always readily available to satisfy fabrication / construction requirements. It is equally important that on-going management of all parts and materials is efficient and cost effective.
The Matrix warehouse inventory / stock control module provides the capability to ensure appropriate stock levels to promote construction and fabrication continuity. Read More...
Material Scheduling
It is essential that all required material and equipment is available on-site and on-time to satisfy project schedules. This important task requires on-going update and correlation of information from diverse operational sources such as procurement, material takeoff, project warehouses and planning.
MatriX assists with this task by providing project material controllers with a powerful tool that consolidates critical information from these different sources to ensure continuity of fabrication / construction progress. The system also ensures that the most efficient construction activity sequences are progressed based on material availability. Read More...
Welding Quality Assurance / Material Traceability
MatriX includes a comprehensive system for welding quality control and material traceability which facilitates progress monitoring of welds and NDT inspections utilised in Piping and Structural fabrication projects.
Material traceability and extensive quality control provides total welding and testing quality assurance for the project fabrication process. Also included is progress monitoring functionality covering all operational components in the fabrication process. Read More...
Document Control
Document control is fundamental to all operational and business areas of a company. It is of particular relevance and importance for managing, controlling and progressing the many document revisions associated with large scale construction, engineering and fabrication projects from inception and design through production to installation and commissioning.
MatriX includes a comprehensive, fit for purpose, document tracking solution that is simple to implement and use. It is highly cost effective compared when compared with traditional corporate document management systems. Read More...
Time Management / Job Booking
Efficient time management and recording can make a big difference to your bottom line. By reducing time spent on data entry time recording, timesheet completion, project / job approvals and client time billing; immediate cost reductions, productivity increases and increased company profits are rapidly achievable.
TimemaX is a compact, easy to use system that encompasses time and attendance functionality as well as providing the ability to record hours for both project and overhead tasks. It is a tool for project costing, project tracking (budget vs actual), billing and invoicing as well as basic project management tasks. Read More...
Progress Tracking
A construction project begins with a work plan that includes a budget, a schedule, and an engineered approach designed to complete the project in the most effective manner. Progress can be monitored and tracked at different operational levels and MatriX is flexible in its approach to ensure the budget, cost and time constraints are adhered to, both at the detailed operational level and for the complete project.
One operational example of detailed progress tracking would be the progress of pipe-work construction from spool pre-fabrication through the stages of erection, hydro-testing and quality control documentation completion. Read More...
Weight Control and Center of Gravity Management
Weight control and centre of gravity calculation is often an integral aspect of complex construction, fabrication and engineering projects.
MatriX was originally developed for offshore and onshore oil and gas platforms and rigs but the systems applies equally to major civil, ship and aircraft construction.
New (greenfield) and existing on-going (brownfield) projects can be accommodated and different load case scenarios and "what ifs" are also possible using the MatriX application. Read More...
Pipe Tracking / Pipe Lay Management
MatriX includes a comprehensive Pipe Tracking and Pipe Lay management module for use during pipeline fabrication and supports both offshore and onshore (landlines) pipeline construction projects.
The system supports all progress tracking, material traceability and quality assurance activities including chemical analysis, welds, repairs, coating, inspections and provides detailed bar chart reports and as-built fabrication records. Read More...

PAENALPinnacle awarded contract by PAENAL to provide a comprehensive material traceability quality control system for their fabrication yard at Porto Amboim in Angola. The MatriX MTQC (material traceability quality control) system will be used to support all fabrication projects at PAENAL’s yard, including the recently awarded module and associated FPSO construction and integration works for the CLOV FPSO for Total. The PAENAL yard was created in 2007 to provide fabrication facilities for topsides modules and FPSO integration in Angola for the oil and gas industry. PAENAL is owned by SBM Offshore, DSME (Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering) and Sonangol. |
