One of O3’s Enterprise clients, a leading Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) firm, has successfully built and implemented a critical API integration between O3’s digital project management platform and AVEVA ERM to improve material management and work packaging processes.
With O3’s easy-to-use features and comprehensive API documentation, the client was able to develop the integration autonomously, starting with the core data exchange between O3 and AVEVA ERM. O3 is used to create Installation Work Packages (IWPs) that include essential details such as the material list, planned execution dates, and priorities. This information is sent seamlessly to AVEVA ERM, which then responds with critical material availability details.
This foundational API integration allows the client to:
The two-way data exchange between O3 and AVEVA ERM provides updates that enable project teams to make informed decisions about whether work packages are ready to be executed.
Once the foundational data exchange was in place, the client introduced advanced functionalities to further optimize their material management processes. The API integration now includes the exchange of:
Purchase Orders (POs) and respective line items including:
Material Allocation at the IWP Level:
With the comprehensive two-way flow of critical information, the client can perform Dynamic Material Allocation based on priority, enabling projects teams to:
In addition to streamlining material allocation, material constraints can now be automatically cleared through O3, which significantly accelerated the project timeline and reduced overhead. This automation ensures that once a material constraint is resolved (e.g., once materials are available or a delivery is confirmed), the associated material constraint of a work package can be automatically closed.
By automatically closing out material constraints when they are resolved, the client can:
The integration between O3 and AVEVA ERM delivers significant benefits to the client, including:
By leveraging this integration, the client is transforming their material management process into a proactive, data-driven system that supports their overall Advanced Work Packaging (AWP) strategy. The seamless flow of information between O3 and AVEVA ERM ensures that work packages are executed on time, with the right materials in place—a key factor in driving project success.
This success story is just one example of how O3’s innovative platform can seamlessly integrate with other systems to optimize workflows and improve project outcomes. With comprehensive API documentation and easy-to-use features, clients are empowered to take charge of and implement integrations that matter most to their business. O3’s ability to pull and push data in real time makes it a powerful tool for managing construction projects of all sizes. Whether it’s enhancing material management, improving work packaging, or integrating with multiple enterprise systems, O3 is built to drive success through connectivity and innovation.
