o What is ConcepSys?
n For process and project engineers who are frustrated with the time
wasted in synchronizing data between hand calculations and various
computer tools,
n ConcepSys is an integrated front-end design system.
n Unlike the complex design suites from Aspen, Intergraph, and
Bentley,
n ConcepSys combines flow diagrams, 3D layout, and equipment data
in one easy to use interface so you can evaluate more options faster
time during early design.
