# PlantSpecDriven

## Intelligent linking of P&ID with AutoCAD Plant 3D

PlantSpecDriven lets you assign catalog data from AutoCAD Plant 3D pipe classes to your P&ID symbols. This makes it possible to generate bills of materials directly from your P&ID drawings.

In the next phase, you can insert the P&ID symbols with the assigned data into your AutoCAD Plant 3D drawings. During this process, PlantSpecDriven checks for inconsistencies between P&ID and 3D. Equipment and their nozzles can also be linked and checked for inconsistencies.

### Bills of materials from P&ID

Use the assigned pipe class data to generate bills of materials directly from your P&ID drawings before moving into 3D detailing.
