A starting point for a better conversation.
This short self-assessment asks about the day-to-day condition of engineering and asset information: how drawings align with field conditions, where tag data is managed, how project handovers are accepted, and whether revisions and system relationships are easy to trace. The ten responses are grouped into five dimensions so the result can point to a useful next conversation.
Each answer is scored from 0 to 3. The total is divided by 30 and multiplied by 100. Each dimension score is calculated from its two questions and normalized to the same 0–100 scale. The calculation is transparent, but it has not been validated as a maturity model and does not compare your answers with other organizations. Results are labelled as self-assessment, not as an audited rating or a measure of engineering or safety performance.
The weakest self-rated dimension links to an existing CAE challenge page. Use that page to examine practical questions and vendor-documented product capabilities. The site readiness snapshot continues discovery through project and governance topics. All examples and scores are educational; decisions about actual plant data should be reviewed by accountable subject-matter experts.
Common questions
Is this a validated plant maturity model?
No. It is a transparent educational self-assessment built from the answers you provide, not a validated audit or industry benchmark.
What does 100 mean?
It means every response was the highest option in this exercise. It does not mean a facility is fully integrated, safe, compliant, or ready for a digital twin.
Can I take the full CAE assessment?
Yes. The result includes a link to the site’s broader readiness assessment, which explores project context, information ownership, and technology alternatives.
