Aspen Capital Cost Estimator (ACCE) is used across the lifecycle of process plant capital projects in the oil and gas, refining, chemicals industries. Based on highly scalable engineering models of process equipment, ACCE accurately predicts total installed costs of process equipment and associated bulks, instrumentation, electrical, and civil.
Consider changes in scope, design, construction techniques, and more with Aspen Capital Cost Estimator. Quantify schedule adjustments and automatically scale the size of a project to either increase or decrease capacity for capital cost using actual equipment rather than scaling factors. This unique approach is proprietary to Aspen Economic Evaluation cost estimation software.
Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, Aspen Process Economic Analyzer and Aspen In-Plant Cost Estimator span project lifecycles to provide consistent cost analysis from pre-feasibility through construction. Also, the decision analyzer module enables the cost engineer to evaluate re-siting and re-sizing of plants.
Aspen Capital Cost Estimator allows users to select a specific project basis to improve model accuracy. Select from five regional locations: US Gulf Coast, Europe, Middle East, Japan, and UK or develop a custom template calibrated to your own localized costing experience.
Aspen Capital Cost Estimator provides a high level of flexibility in developing estimates on large projects. ACCE has been tested and proven on estimates for the world’s largest and most complex mega projects. ACCE easily handles multiple contractor cost structures, subcontractors, multiple estimating teams, modular construction, and many other factors.
Aspen Capital Cost Estimator can be used effectively in conjunction with intelligent P&ID solutions such as SmartPlant P&ID to import piping design information into the estimating system. Additionally, ACCE supports links to Oracle Project (Primavera) in order to export project scheduling and resourcing information that is developed by ACCE.
