XML for Capital Facilities
Publication: Leadership and Management in Engineering
Volume 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Extensible markup language (XML) is a promising technology for improving the execution of capital projects and capital facility life cycle data management. It confers the greatest value when industry practitioners agree to use a common “electronic vocabulary.” The business motivations for achieving software interoperability are first reviewed. Then XML technology is described and a summary is presented of a joint industry undertaking sponsored by the organization FIATECH to develop and deploy a pragmatic common-industry XML vocabulary for the design, procurement, delivery, and operation of engineered equipment.
