Our Vision & Mision

Our Vision

USPI adopted the current vision from the PIEBASE vision who created it in 1994. That vision was and still is supported by a wide range of companies and consortia from the process industries. It reads: “Companies in the process industries shall be able to share and/or exchange electronically the information needed to design, build, operate and maintain process and power plants using internationally accepted standards”.

Our Mission

We are dedicated to developing, maintaining, and promoting international standards and best practices for product and plant life cycle information management. Our aims are to ensure the delivery of safe, reliable, and environmentally friendly products and installations with high-quality information, to reduce project delivery times, lower costs, and foster innovation. We seek to create synergies and exchange knowledge with other sectors, such as shipping, aeronautics, and building, through focused Special Interest Groups based on mutual needs.
