RMT originated in the highly regulated nuclear and life-science industries, for which
with all applicable laws, regulations, standards, and specifications, both for proposed
capital projects and in existing operating plants. Other process industries, such as
conventional power, chemicals, and oil and gas, are increasingly recognizing the need
for RMT because of:
•tIncreasing levels of regulation.
•tMore stringent auditing and penalties being imposed by regulators.
•tThe growing cost and complexity of process plants.
•tIncreasing globalization and number of stakeholders and their associated
requirements.
•tIdentify gaps and non-fulfillment of
stakeholder requirements.
•tImplementation of more rigorous process safety and asset integrity programs.
•tTrack requirements against the
evolving engineering design basis
during project work.
The SPO RMT solution leverages the power gained from integrating requirements,
•tPerform follow-up on all requirements and gain auditable traceability throughout the plant life cycle.
•tProvide demonstrable compliance
to regulatory authorities for the
management of requirements.
THE POWER OF INTEGRATION
commitments, and the engineering design basis into a common database. The SPO
RMT solution is integrated with the SPO Core solution that manages the plant engineering design basis. This tightly integrated environment provides a direct “line-of-sight”
between each requirement and the affected plant systems, structures, and components
(SSCs) and associated documentation. Users can quickly and easily assess the impact
of change originating in either the plant design information or governing requirements.
IDENTIFYING INDIVIDUAL REQUIREMENTS OR
COMMITMENT ITEMS
A requirements document may include many different requirements, such as:
•tPerformance requirements.
•tSafety requirements.
•tFunctional requirements.
