Case Study

Relief Study Ensures Compliance for WFE System

When a biobased chemical manufacturer needed to ensure their Wiped Film Evaporator (WFE) systems were fully compliant with OSHA and API standards, they turned to C-P Systems. Through our phased approach, we identified critical gaps in their overpressure protection, delivered detailed P&IDs, and provided a comprehensive mechanical construction package. Our efforts minimized downtime, ensured safety, and optimized their system performance. Explore how we helped the client achieve compliance and enhance efficiency.

Supporting a Global Crop Sciences Company's North American Launch

When a leading global crop sciences company partnered with C-P Systems to establish its U.S. manufacturing and distribution footprint, our team successfully guided the project from site selection and permitting to construction oversight. See how we achieved this by bridging the gap between international design intent and U.S. codes and coordinating more than a dozen service providers.

Preventing Rework in Process Design

Process projects rarely fail because of one major mistake. More often, they drift off course due to missing early inputs, unclear assumptions, and rushed decisions made before a process is fully defined. Discover how early process design and strong PFDs reduce rework, align teams, and protect budget, schedule, and scope.

Piping Design That Prevents Surprises and Makes Execution Intentionally Uneventful

Piping design is the foundation for creating constructible, maintainable, and code-compliant systems that operate safely and efficiently. Download this white paper to gain a clear understanding of what it takes to get piping design right the first time, and how that effort will pay off from concept to construction.

Common Piping Design Mistakes (and How to Avoid Them)
Even with advanced design tools and experienced teams, piping design mistakes still occur, and the consequences ripple across cost, schedule, and safety. Small oversights during design often cascade into major problems during construction and operations.

How PFDs and P&IDs Reduce Project Risk and Rework
Process flow diagrams (PFDs) and piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs) may look similar at first glance, but they serve very different purposes. Teams that blur the line between them often face rework, inefficiencies, and confusion. Understanding the difference between these two important diagrams and how they work together is key to keeping industrial projects on schedule and within budget.

Keeping Engineering Documentation in Compliance with the 14 Elements of PSM
Process Safety Management (PSM) is an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulatory framework that applies to operations using highly hazardous chemicals (HHCs). The purpose of PSM is to reduce the risk of an incident occurring by requiring facilities to implement systems and practices designed to prevent the accidental release of toxic, flammable, reactive, or explosive substances.

What “As-Built” Really Means
We’ve seen it many times. Our engineers sit down at a project kick-off meeting and we begin asking the customer questions about their existing layout drawings and 3D models to verify the current state. Don’t worry about that, the customer says, we have “as-built” drawings, and pulls them up on the screen. They appear to match the described process. We schedule a field walkdown for the next day to confirm the documentation accuracy. Onsite, our engineers discover that a large pump on their factory floor is 8 inches to the left of where the drawing says it should be; our skepticism grows as we then discover conduit blocking the anticipated pipe routing for the new process. The reality is: the customer’s “as-built” drawings are really “as-designed.”
