12. Puma5 strategy • Be on the market as a valid alternate solution to the systems at present utilised for piping management (both commercial and in-house developed), that are complex, expensive and require a huge utilisation of resources and time for customisation and maintenance • Make available all the necessary tools and codes for design and management, to be immediately utilised “as-it-is” (if necessary customisation are performed in very short time) • Maintain and increase the present market share, through continuous updating and improvement • Increase integration with CAD systems and corporate management systems

13. Main key factors • Immediate and easy to use • Fully integrated with MS Office (export in Excel and Word formats) • Data located on centralised server continuously updated and available • Direct integration with 3D CAD systems (Piping Classes export, material lists import) • AutoPLANT (Bentley) • PDS 3D (Intergraph) • PDMS (Aveva) • UG (Unigraphics) • Complete functions to support all the project life-cycle activities • WEB enabled: all functions available and workable with MS Internet Explorer browser

14. Why Puma5 is competitive • Developed on the basis of requirements from the major main contracting companies working mainly on EPC contracts • Complete management of components, attributes and quantities during all the phases (Spc, MTO, P.Orders, Construction) • Very high penetration among Italian plant layout companies (..it is a … de facto std) • Low costs (“n” times lower than the other available systems) • Tested and consolidated, it has been successfully utilised on hundreds projects • Very fast learning rate, immediate investment return, very high cost/benefit ratio
