PRODUCT SHEET
SMARTPLANT® FOUNDATION WEB PORTALSmartPlant® Foundation Web Portal provides internal and external
project and plant team members with access to important docu-
ments and information via the Web while maintaining security and
permission settings. Multiple fit-for-purpose interfaces can be easily
tailored to user needs/permissions so that each user is provided with
a user interface that makes sense for them.
Improve your business productivity by changing how you operate.
SmartPlant Foundation Web Portal reduces the need for paper cop-
ies and the delays and costs they involve. Users can simply connect
to their projects from any machine using the standard Microsoft®
Internet Explorer® rather than dedicated applications, reducing the
time and effort spent by system administrators on maintenance of
software versions on many machines.
Through the support of the most popular 2D and 3D formats, users
benefit from the most versatile one-stop portal for all of their plant
and project needs. Users can participate in workflows and design
reviews, and provide valuable feedback to the owners of the infor-
mation in a timely manner.
Cut your training costs by configuring portal graphical user interfaces
(GUIs) to the task at hand, internal standards, and project material.
You can develop internal page templates for faster project startup
to ensure consistency for those users who need access to multiple
projects or plants, reducing the learning curve through continuity.
Access Anywhere, AnytimeUsers can access Web portals via a URL from any location.
Suppliers, sub-contractors, and remote team members can save
portal links as “Favorites” to quickly navigate from project-to-project
or plant-to-plant. Portal pages – whether fit-for-purpose or role-pur-
posed – can be set up on a single server to provide users with the
right amount of information at the right time, rather than just a “store”
of information that is accessible from the Web or a single interface
with hundreds of options.
Increasing ProductivityWeb portals can increase your productivity and reduce bottom-
line expenses by eliminating old processes and business habits,
reducing training costs, and decreasing project portal startup time.
SmartPlant Foundation Web Portal also increases transparency and
its reporting capabilities provide true indicators of progress.
Remote team members, sub-contractors, suppliers, and vendors
can all access critical project information via a portal for direct ac-
cess to pertinent documentation and data, reducing the reliance
on paper documents. By providing access via the Web, you don’t
have to worry about version compatibility with client applications or
providing software to outside team members.
Project startup time can be minimized because portal pages are
content-independent. You can build templates that can be reused
and modified to meet specific project needs rather than starting
from scratch.
The portal leverages the existing customization and configuration al-
ready performed on your information management system. There is
no need to reconfigure or rework the underlying system just because
you need a more flexible user interface.
Reporting capabilities enable casual users to monitor informa-
tion flow and status without having to dig deep into the system.
Information is presented in pie, bar, and trend charts to easily see a
high-level view of project progress. This reporting can also be used
to determine the “readiness” of the required materials or when to
bring other teams into the project to prepare for their responsibilities.

ABOUT INTERGRAPH
Saving TimeStarting up a Web portal on an Intergraph information man-
agement system only takes about one minute. Pre-configured
layouts enable you to quickly select portal pages that best suit
your needs. These layouts also act as the starting point for cus-
tomizing those pages to your specific goals and needs.
Reducing Training CostsWith SmartPlant Foundation Web Portal, projects and plants can
have multiple portal pages for any single project. You are only
limited by the diversity that you want to supply the user base.
Users can gain project access through geographical maps, dy-
namic project carousels, and simplified URLs that eliminate the
technical complexity of gaining access to the right information.
Not only does this provide users with focused portal pages, but
it also reduces GUI complexity. Training costs are drastically re-
duced because team members can be presented with a simple
fit-for-purpose GUI for a very specific responsibility.
Added Value SmartPlant Foundation Web Portal comes with your purchase
of the Intergraph information management system. The portal
technology also leverages your existing user accounts and
information management licensing. This enables you to expand
the value of your information management investment across
your enterprise.
Integration PossibilitiesUsing open and standardized Web technology, the SmartPlant
Foundation Web Portal provides a common platform for linking
and integrating information from other applications and serv-
ers that support this Web technology into a single view. You
can build dashboards or single viewing portals for critical items
or systems. Access multiple data and document stores with a
single query, rather than switching from application to applica-
tion, repeating the same query.
Add-ins from other vendors can be incorporated to extend the
usability and interface options’ look and feel to better suit your
user base needs.
