We are delighted to share that CFIHOS on metaphactory has recently achieved conformance with the Capital Facilities Information Handover Specification (CFIHOS), a key specification developed under the IOGP's Joint Industry Programme 36 (JIP36).

This achievement validates the capability of the metaphactory knowledge graph platform to streamline the management and handover of complex asset information across the entire supply chain—from facility operators and contractors to equipment manufacturers.

Transforming compliance with knowledge graphs

CFIHOS on metaphactory is a comprehensive solution designed to move beyond traditional document-centric information handover. It transforms the CFIHOS data model into a dynamic, interconnected Knowledge Graph, leveraging W3C standards to ensure data consistency, traceability and contractual compliance throughout the entire project lifecycle.

Key benefits of CFIHOS on metaphactory

• Full lifecycle support: Our solution supports all CFIHOS conformance areas (A-F), covering the complete project workflow, including defining standards, integrating data from multiple contractors, and validating deliverables.
• Centralized knowledge hub: By utilizing the CFIHOS Ontology as the formal schema, we create a single, unified and semantic view of all project information, seamlessly linking complex asset data from disparate systems.
• Extensibility and unified view: Customers benefit from a unified view across all industry standards and internal terminology. This is enabled by the CFIHOS RDL Data Reference Library used as the foundation in CFIHOS on metaphactory, allowing the solution to link to other standards and be extended with corporate-specific vocabularies.
• Assured data quality: We empower teams to ensure the delivery of high-quality data through powerful, customizable validation rules, including SHACL and SPARQL, which automatically check information for completeness and accuracy before handover.
• Seamless integration: The solution integrates easily with existing systems and can export validated, compliant project information in standard formats such as RDF or via APIs for direct transfer to business systems used in operations and maintenance.

This conformance reinforces metaphacts' dedication to driving innovation and standardization in industrial information management. By supporting industry-wide alignment on data standards such as CFIHOS, we continue to help our customers unlock the true value of their technical information, leading to more efficient operations and enhanced commercial opportunities.
