Automated Network Design

ANT allows teams to model multiple network designs like never before. Leveraging Biarri’s extensive experience in network design the EMI team have reimagined the traditional process of designing complex pipeline networks.  ANT’s simple to use web interface allows users to create complex networks factoring in environmental constraints, variables, organisational rules, allowing teams to ensure their new network will meet capacity requirements.

As you design multiple and complex networks, ANT automatically builds cost estimations allowing project teams visibility of procurement and construction estimates. The tool allows network design teams to rapidly iterate on networks, adjusting designs in real-time.

Delivered as a web app, ANT provides value through the following key areas:

• Rich Visualisations –  ANT offers a visual representation of complex and large amounts of data/information and simplifies it with an interactive map view. Overlays of various information provide alternative perspectives and allow users to evaluate multiple options and alternatives.  View all costings – including bill of materials, construction & procurement through the interactive dashboard.
• Operational Efficiency – Eradicate the manual design process.  Use the tool to create a draft network and then refine the design adjusting for the cost impacts of landholder access, environmental considerations,  roads and manually added high-cost zones. 
• Optimise Collaboration – ANT enables effective and efficient collaboration on design between users, project teams, contractors and stakeholders. ANT allows users to share and access project and design data collaboratively by providing complete visibility into designs.
• Easy Integration – Connect existing GIS systems and pull existing data directly into the app.
