One requirement for effective plant management is optimum networking and coordination of all disciplines and departments involved in the engineering and operation of a plant. The software solution COMOS is the basis for the cooperation of worldwide collaboration across the entire life cycle of a plant.

The integrated COMOS software concept is based on object orientation. Components are described holistically and displayed graphically in their true-to-life representation. The graphical (drawings) and data-related description, which includes all data associated with the component, forms a single unit within the database – the object. Related data sheets, lists, and other documents are linked to the corresponding objects.

The COMOS portfolio is built as a modular structure. The software solutions are integrated with each other and cover all lifecycle phases from process design to basic and detailed engineering to operation and modernization. They can be individually implemented, as required, or employed as a stand-alone solution.
