Corporate Engineering Standards & Best Practices

The Equity Engineering Practices® (EEPs) are a comprehensive collection of cloud-native, customizable engineering standards covering the complete asset lifecycle – design, maintenance, inspection, and repair – for refineries, chemical plants, fertilizer facilities, and other industrial processing operations.

Aligned with the latest API, ASME, and RAGAGEP requirements, the EEPs help engineering, maintenance, and process teams satisfy Process Safety Management (PSM) requirements, capture institutional knowledge, and reduce inspection and maintenance costs across the organization.

  • Capture, integrate, and transfer SME knowledge before it walks out the door
  • Harmonize lessons learned and legacy documents in one searchable location
  • Reduce inspection and maintenance costs across the full asset lifecycle
  • Apply uniform standards from initial process design through to decommissioning
  • Provide unlimited employee access and project-specific access to contractors
