From Engineering Deliverable to Commissioned System — In One Platform
Konnect xD Construction Management digitizes the full construction lifecycle for complex heavy engineering projects. Ingest native engineering files directly. Define scope down to the work step. Track progress tag by tag. Gate earned value on real inspections. Purpose-built for FPSO, shipbuilding, and industrial plant construction.

Construction Management on Mega-Projects Is Still Held Together by Spreadsheets
Konnect xD Construction Management was built to eliminate this entire pattern.
Eight Steps from Project Setup to System Handover
Create Project
Set up the project identity, area/zone hierarchy, and discipline taxonomy. Invite users by company type — Owner, Main Contractor, Yard, Subcontractor — each with appropriate role-based access.
Ingest Engineering Data
Upload native engineering files — Isogen .idf, SpoolGen .pcf, CIS/2, or MTO spreadsheets. The system auto-detects the format, parses the full entity graph (spools + welds + flanges in one pass), and populates the Tag Register.
Configure Scope Templates
Define the progress "language" for the project: work step sequences per tag type × discipline, with weightings that reflect real relative effort. Five-level activity hierarchy: Phase → Discipline → Activity Group → Activity → Progress Step/Quality Inspections.
Commit Scope
Lock the scope of work to generate concrete, trackable work steps for every tag. The committed scope becomes the baseline. Per-tag overrides are available for exception handling.
Record Progress
Supervisors open the mobile interface, find their tags, and mark work steps as complete. Each entry is timestamped and attributed. Quality gates hold progress credit until inspections pass.
Manage Engineering Changes
When Rev B arrives, re-ingest the file. Automatic structural diff compares against the previous version — entities added, removed, or modified. Severity-coded items with progress impact trigger early warnings.
Review Dashboards
Project controls views real-time roll-ups by discipline, area, tag type, or project. S-curves show planned vs actual vs forecast. Drill down from any tile to individual tag progress.
Handover & Completion
Track system completions from mechanical completion through RFSU to final handover. Compile digital dossiers per system — all QC records, test results, punch items, and as-built data in a single auditable package.
Six Pillars of Construction Intelligence
Skip the Spreadsheet
Ingest Isogen .idf files for piping isometrics, SpoolGen .pcf files for spool MTO, and CIS/2 for structural steel — directly into the construction scope. One file upload creates spools, welds, and flanges in a single pass. Re-ingestion of revised files triggers automatic structural diffing with severity-based impact analysis.
The Most Advanced Scope Definition System
Five-level activity hierarchy — Phase → Discipline → Activity Group → Activity → Progress Step/Quality Inspections — with configurable weightings, gate steps, and UOM matching. Scope templates generate trackable work steps for every tag. Per-tag overrides handle real-world exceptions.
Progress That Means Something
Progress is only earned when inspections pass. Hold points block advancement until QC signs off. NDE sampling rates auto-escalate when a welder's repair rate exceeds configurable thresholds, and auto-de-escalate after consecutive passes.
Engineering Changes Don't Hide Anymore
Re-ingest a revised engineering file and instantly see what changed: new entities, removed entities, modified attributes. If entities with in-progress work are affected, the system creates change management incidents with side-by-side comparison and structured resolution workflows.
Connecting Planners and Builders
Export plan baselines from KXD Planning. Receive quality-gated field progress actuals back. One L3 schedule activity maps to 2,500 construction work items — and this platform closes that gap with a defined data contract and activity mapping.
Shop Floor to Handover
Four discipline sub-apps — Piping (flagship), Structural Steel, Electrical, Instrumentation — each with domain-specific work steps, inspection types, and tracking logic. Piping alone covers shop fabrication through precommissioning.
Piping — From Spool Fabrication to System Handover
The piping sub-app covers the full spool lifecycle — from shop fabrication through field erection to system handover.
10 Integrated Modules
13 piping QC report templates — fit-up inspection, visual inspection, PMI, ferrite testing, PWHT, pressure test, borescope inspection, flange register, welding monitoring, material traceability — auto-populated from parent entities.
Two Systems. One Truth.
Quality Review
Progress Measurement
Quality gates hold progress credit. NDE auto-escalation triggers on repair rate. Progress is only counted after inspections pass. The two systems enforce each other — quality is not optional.
Purpose-Built for Complex Heavy Engineering
FPSO Modules
Modular topsides and hull fabrication with hundreds of concurrent spools, structural members, and equipment items across multiple work fronts. Shop fabrication through staging, transport, and field erection with continuous engineering revision management.
Shipbuilding
Block assembly, outfitting, and system commissioning programs. Multi-discipline coordination across hull, piping, E&I, and structural trades with AWP-driven work packaging and quality-gated milestones tied to classification society inspections.
Industrial Plant
Refinery turnarounds, petrochemical expansion, and greenfield EPC. DCMA-compliant scheduling (via KXD Planning integration), contractor-level progress reporting, and robust change management for engineering revisions that arrive mid-construction.
