Abstract

The materials are the basis of the nuclear power plant construction. Effective nuclear power engineering material management can accelerate the construction and reduce project cost of the nuclear power plant. In order to put the design of the source data into engineering material management, regulate the process of material procurement management and provide material procurement data and design drawings data in real-time for site management, this paper proposed the solution of the engineering material EPC (engineering, procurement, construction) based on VPRM system and SAP system and finally realized it. This solution also solved the main problems existing in engineering material management business of the nuclear power plant construction, and meets the meticulous management concept at the same time.
