EPC is an industry acronym for Engineering, Procurement and Construction. EPC's are companies that design and build large facilities like Power Plants, Oil Refineries, Airports, and other "super" projects.
A key role for technology in the EPC business is the integration of data across this process to enable engineers, buyers, suppliers, contractors and operators to work together to efficiently build and deliver a working, complex system. Additionally, this wealth of information needs to be delivered to the owner in whatever form they are used to dealing with it.
