MODS announces digital fabrication solution

Aberdeen, UK:

MODS announces the release of MODS Connect Fabrication, a digital solution for fabrication contractors, as well as operations and maintenance for contractors operations and maintenance for construction contractors and operators in the energy sector and beyond.

The Fabrication module sits within the MODS Connect software suite, which is a cloud-based solution designed to address the specific challenges of brownfield development. With the potential to revolutionize the entire fabrication process for effective supply-chain oversight, MODS Connect Fabrication enables transparency, progress tracking and traceability for all components under manufacture throughout the entire fabrication process.

“Industrial fabrication processes tend to be paper-based,” says Jon Bell, CEO. “Our digital fabrication module addresses the longstanding challenges of traceability and progress tracking that fab yards often struggle with.”

Matthew Bell, UK Operations Manager, agrees: “Typically, operators and construction contractors need to rely on word of mouth and reams of paper that are time-consuming to search for fabrication updates. MODS Connect Fabrication eliminates paper, digitizing all fabrication information and putting it on the cloud so that it is accessible and current.”

The traditional opacity associated with industrial fabrication regarding real-time status creates bottlenecks for operators and construction contractors who rely on materials being ready at the right time, in the right place and in the right sequence.

Matthew continues, “MODS Connect Fabrication clears a significant technological hurdle, digitizing the fabrication process from procurement of raw materials through to shipping of fabricated components.”

Features and benefits of MODS Connect Fabrication include:

• Real-time fabrication tracking via App technology
• Dashboard and static reporting
• Quick traceability
• Digital fabrication dossiers
• Improved transparency
• Materials supply-chain visibility
• Less administration
• Improved scheduling
• Clearer, more accurate communication
• Heightened quality assurance and accountability

Through partnership with global fabrication provider, Louisiana-based Grand Isle Shipyard (GIS), MODS Connect Fabrication has been vetted through real-world beta testing, ensuring a fit-for-purpose solution for industrial fabrication contractors, accelerating their digital transformation and increasing the safety, productivity and transparency of fabrication operations and oversight.
