Digital transformation is a major topic for the process industries. Advanced process models play a central role in both digital design and intelligent digital operations, by capturing deep process knowledge in a way that can be leveraged within Digital Twins to generate value over the lifetime of the process.
PSE – now a Siemens business – is the world's leading supplier of Advanced Process Modelling technology, in the form of our gPROMS platform technology, and related digital design and innovation services to the process industries. The company is also a leader in intelligent digital operations solutions, where deep process knowledge is applied within online automation solutions to create daily value for operating plants.
Our customers create value in their organisations by using advanced process modelling to explore the process decision space rapidly, reduce uncertainty and make better, faster and safer design and operating decisions.
The result is accelerated innovation with faster time-to-market, improved process and product design, enhanced operations, more efficient and effective R&D and experimental programmes, and better-managed risk.
Why PSE?
PSE brings innovative tools and workflows, a powerful and integrated modelling platform, concerted R&D and collaborative working to the process industries.
Next-generation modelling power
Process simulation tools and workflows have evolved remarkably little over the last 20 to 30 years. PSE is committed to driving the technology and practice forward to create new value and competitive advantage for our customers.
Platform & components
PSE products are based on a 'platform + components' model. This allows you to start with what you need and add functionality as you require. It also allows us to cover the whole process space with a single, scalable modelling architecture to simplify and streamline your workflows.
Collaborative working, for the long-term
PSE is committed to working in close partnership in long-term relationships with our customers to create sustainable value wherever possible. This helps customers to derive value from their software investment rapidly, and helps them develop a strong modelling infrastructure based on successful application.
Investment in R&D and support
We are committed to keeping our gPROMS platform and gPROMS family products at the forefront of modelling technology. We spend over 30% of revenue on research and development, meaning that if you work with us you will always be applying the latest, state-of-the-art technologies to optimize your operations.
What we provide
We provide both software technology – in the form of the gPROMS advanced process and material modelling platform and the gPROMS ProcessBuilder and gPROMS FormulatedProducts environments built on it – and services aimed at model-based innovation and engineering.
Business sectors
We work in virtually all the major process industry sectors, with particular focus on Chemicals & Petrochemicals, Oil & Gas, Life Sciences, Food & Consumer Products, Power & CCS, Fuel Cells & Batteries and Wastewater.
PSE's technology and services are transforming the way the organisations in these sectors design and operate their processes. We bring new ways to create and capture sustainable value with rapid returns on investment, by providing new ways to deal with complexity, uncertainty and risk, and to make breakthrough innovation.
In addition PSE Academic provides low-cost academic licences for research and teaching to approximately 200 academic institutions around the world.
Where we are
Our global customer base of Fortune 500 companies is served by operations in the UK (head office), USA, Switzerland, Japan, Korea and UAE, and agencies in China, Taiwan.
Recognised innovators
PSE's role in innovation was recognised by the Royal Academy of Engineering when we were awarded the MacRobert Award for Engineering Innovation, the UK's highest award for engineering.
Our commitment
We work in virtually all the major process industry sectors, with particular focus on Chemicals & Petrochemicals, Oil & Gas, Life Sciences, Food & Consumer Products, Power & CCS, Fuel Cells & Batteries and Wastewater.
PSE is committed to furthering the boundaries of process modelling and to bringing the significant benefits of this technology to our customers through our thought leadership in key emerging areas and our continuous R&D innovation programme.
We are also committed to working in close partnership in long-term relationships with our customers to create sustainable value wherever possible, and to helping organisations develop their internal modelling infrastructure.
