In EPC projects, one common misconception is that perfect drawings alone guarantee a successful plant construction. The truth is: designs donโt build plantsโconstructability does. You can create the most detailed 3D models, the most precise routing, and the most accurate specificationsโฆ but if the field team cannot build it safely, efficiently, or within the planned work fronts, the…
