About The Customer
SATRIA Technologies Sdn. Bhd. is a small start-up company based in Selangor, Malaysia. The company provides engineering solutions for power utilities, industries, and infrastructure. Their services are highly sought after by large electricity utilities, such as Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), Malaysia’s largest electricity utility. SATRIA is known for its commitment to delivering on time and meeting customer expectations, a core factor that has contributed to its success in the industry. The company is also known for its ability to design a variety of panel types to fit narrow spaces, a skill that was put to the test in the project with TNB.
The Challenge
SATRIA Technologies, a small start-up company in Selangor, Malaysia, provides engineering solutions for power utilities, industries, and infrastructure. The company was contracted by Malaysia’s largest electricity utility, Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), to design and supply control relay panels for its new substation in Pandamaran, Klang. The MYR 500,000 project required SATRIA to design six different protection and control schemes for 19 33 kilovolt/11-kilovolt units to fit in a compact space within the substation. Previously, SATRIA engineers were given a month to deliver conceptual drawings and schematic designs. However, for this project, TNB mandated that SATRIA complete initial and detailed electrical design and panel arrangement drawings within a 20-day time frame. To meet this tight deadline and design a variety of panel types to fit a narrow space, SATRIA needed a collaborative intelligent modeling technology.
The Solution
In 2015, SATRIA decided to move from AutoCAD to Bentley’s Promis.e and standardize its electrical design process. A team of engineers spent three months transferring data and libraries of information to Promis.e to build a central database with intelligent properties. They created a catalog, title block, symbols, standard parts library, and report templates that could be tailored to the specific needs of individual clients and used to support all electrical engineering projects. With the central database complete and stored on SATRIA’s server, the company arranged a network configuration so that all engineers and draftsmen could simultaneously access a particular project or library in the system, facilitating collaboration and ensuring consistency across all designs and drawings. The flexibility of Promis.e enabled the project team to configure the information in the database to design the different types of control relay panels in accordance with TNB’s specifications.
Operational Impact
  • The implementation of Bentley’s Promis.e has transformed SATRIA's design process from manual to automated, significantly reducing design time and cost of errors. The software's intelligent automated functions have enabled SATRIA to develop a reliable, organized design process that accelerates information sharing and project delivery times while minimizing the risk of errors. The ability to export designs and drawings to multiple file formats has simplified communication with the client and stakeholders, making the review and revision process more efficient. The use of Promis.e has also resulted in a database of electrical components, which will assist SATRIA in meeting future client requirements. Overall, the use of Promis.e has enhanced engineering efficiencies, enabling SATRIA to remain competitive and reliable within the industry.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Reduced delivery time by 50 percent, saving MYR 20,000.
  • Automated cross-referencing took seconds instead of days.
  • Schematic drawings for each panel took one day rather than two.
