Project Data and Model Management
for High-Voltage Substations in Primary Engineering
The primtech Model Manager structures and manages all data that is required during the substation life cycle. Linked data sources (e.g. Project Management, ERP or Asset Management) can be displayed directly in the Model Manager.
CheckIn/Out
Project data is stored on the server in the checked-in area. Models are replicated for editing into the local checked-out area, and are locked on the server against editing by other users. It is possible to see which models are checked-out for editing by which users at any time.
Concurrent Engineering
The project structure and Check-In/-Out technology optimally support simultaneous editing of the project by multiple users. Each node can be checked-out separately.
Replication, Distributed Site
The replication module allows multiple primtech servers to be connected. This technology enables concurrent engineering on a global scale within a distributed server architecture. For each project you can select with which server location you want to share it with.
User Management
The user management system permits highly granular rights assignment. This prevents unauthorised access to your data.
Reuse
Each substation project is stored in the database with standardized attributes such as location, voltage level, snow depth. It gives a quick overview of the design solutions applied in similar substation projects. Identical or repeatedly required bays can simply be copied and pasted.
Plant Standards
The transparent database and project structure allows the management of high voltage design standards such as substation layouts, bays and assemblies. This also applies for drawing standards, title blocks, frames and more. This is a strong foundation to create new substation projects according to your approved company standards.
Large projects
primtech manages all data for your substation project in a logical database structure. The database technology with intelligent references manages your data without worrying about folder structures or naming conventions. This enables even large substation projects to be managed efficiently and collaboratively.
Database Technology
The core is a high-performance MS-SQL server database that manages and connects all the information securely considering the single source of truth principle.

What is the primtech Model Manager?
The primtech Model Manager structures and manages all data that is required during the substation life cycle. Linked data sources (e.g. Project Management, ERP or Asset Management) can be displayed directly in the Model Manager.
Can several engineers work on the same substation project at the same time?
Yes. The project structure and Check-In/-Out technology optimally support simultaneous editing of the project by multiple users. Each node can be checked-out separately, and you can see at any time which models are checked-out by which users.
Can primtech be used across several locations?
Yes. The replication module allows multiple primtech servers to be connected. This enables concurrent engineering on a global scale within a distributed server architecture. For each project you can select with which server location you want to share it.
Can I reuse designs from previous substation projects?
Yes. Each substation project is stored in the database with standardized attributes such as location, voltage level and snow depth. This gives a quick overview of the design solutions applied in similar projects, and identical or repeatedly required bays can simply be copied and pasted.
Which database technology does primtech use?
The core is a high-performance MS-SQL server database that manages and connects all the information securely, following the single source of truth principle.
