Turn Engineering Documents into Business Data You Can Trust
The Seven Peaks Document Digitization Accelerator turns unstructured engineering documents into validated, governed industrial data so digital twin, predictive maintenance, and AI programs can move from promise to measurable results. It establishes Snowflake as a trusted data foundation for industrial initiatives where delivery certainty matters.
When Siloed or Untrusted Data Puts Programs at Risk
Most industrial transformation programs don’t stall because of technology. They stall because data is fragmented, inconsistently interpreted, or not trusted across teams. Engineering knowledge lives in documents owned by different vendors, projects, and departments. When programs try to scale, this fragmentation surfaces as delays, rework, and disagreement about what is correct.
The result is slow decisions, rising risk, and stalled value.
Common patterns we see:
Seven Peaks Document Digitization Accelerator: A Controlled Path from Documents to Data
Providing a governed, production-ready path from fragmented engineering documents to a single, trusted industrial data foundation, the Seven Peaks Document Digitization Accelerator is designed for organizations that need trusted data to support operational decisions.
Engineer-Governed by Design
AI accelerates extraction, but engineering teams retain authority. Data only becomes usable once it is reviewed, validated, and approved.
Fully Auditable from Day One
Every value is traceable back to its source document, supporting internal assurance, regulatory needs, and long-term reuse.
Built to Enable Business Outcomes
Data is structured around assets and systems so it can reliably support digital twins, predictive maintenance, and industrial AI.
How the Document Digitization Accelerator Works
The Accelerator is a proven delivery framework that ensures only trusted, validated engineering data enters Snowflake—ready for use across the business.
Document Ingestion & Classification
Engineering documents from vendors, EPCs, and internal teams are ingested and classified upfront. This establishes clarity on document type, asset scope, and validation requirements before extraction begins.
- Multi-format document ingestion
- Engineering document classification
- Asset and system context applied early
- Structured preparation for AI processing
AI-Assisted Extraction
AI models, embedded via Snowflake Cortex AI, extract engineering attributes using document context and confidence scoring. AI accelerates scale—but never operates unchecked.
- Context-aware extraction logic
- Attribute prioritization
- Field-level confidence scoring
- AI used as an assisted step
Engineering Validation & Audit Control
All extracted data passes through a governed validation workflow. Discipline engineers review, correct, and explicitly approve values before they are released.
- Mandatory human validation
- Discipline-specific engineering review
- Full audit and approval logging
- No silent acceptance of AI output
Structuring into Industrial Data Models
Validated information is structured into engineering-ready data models aligned to assets, equipment hierarchies, and standards such as DEXPI, ISO 15926, and CFIHOS so it is usable across systems and lifecycle stages.
- Asset-aligned data structures
- Import directly into EDMS
- Replacement of manual EPC extraction
- Reduced rework across projects
Snowflake as the Governed Industrial Data Foundation
Only validated data is loaded into Snowflake as the single source of truth. Governance, lineage, and access controls ensure consistent use across teams.
- Governed data pipelines
- End-to-end traceability
- Secure enterprise access
Feeding Industrial AI Platforms & Digital Twins
Once validated and governed in Snowflake, engineering data is passed to industrial AI and digital twin platforms that depend on trusted asset context to deliver value. The accelerator ensures these platforms receive clean, structured input—so they can focus on insight and decisions, not data remediation.
- Clean and structured data for industrial platforms
- Faster onboarding into Cognite CDF and Kognitwin
- Reduced remediation and rework effort
- Increased trust in AI-driven insights and digital twins
