Standardization of data models in automation industry is a tedious, time-consuming and multidisciplinary process. The absence of a successfully standardized and established data exchange methodology for PCE (Process Control Equipment) Requests as the most informative capsule of data is an unsolved gap between process and control engineering tools. This contribution describes the first application of a novel and agile standardization method, applied by means of PCE Requests. In the result, within 10 month, leading CAE tool vendors and users of engineering tools have developed a detailed standard electronic data model of the PCE Request, as well as prototype exporter and importer for process and control engineering tools. Consequently, the bidirectional data exchange of PCE Requests between multiple software tools in various disciplines have been successfully demonstrated at the NAMUR Annual General Meeting 2014.
