The information flow between field device and Distributed Control System (DCS) is sometimes incomplete when handling difficult failures such as a device breakdown and a subsequent re-commissioning of the plant. Therefore very often manual configurations on the substituted device are necessary. These interactions require well educated staff. The project investigated solutions to improve the re-commissioning automatically in relation to the required data and information flow inside the DCS. In addition, ifak investigates how the engineering process can be improved, such as phases from P&I diagrams up to device parameterisation.
