In this episode of In the Loop, we take a closer look at SPI (SmartPlant Instrumentation) and its role in today’s engineering environments. From managing instrumentation data to supporting project execution and long-term operations, SPI continues to be a critical system across many industrial projects. But as projects evolve, so do the challenges—ranging from data consistency and handover gaps to integration with broader digital strategies. Whether you’re actively using SPI or navigating similar systems, this conversation highlights key considerations for improving data flow, reducing inefficiencies, and supporting more connected operations.
