Description
The acronym WIP stands for Work In Progress database. It is the ISO 15926 Reference Data Library which contains the approved core library set and the Object Information Models (e.g. product models), but is expanded with proposed classes and proposed model extensions.
So, in other words: The set of terms used to classify equipment, activities etc., and their properties are expandable by the users themselves so that extensions can be used immediately.
It has taken the process industry 15 years to build the content. This is now available free to the public.

That paragons description and wild fame;
One that excels the quirks of blazoning pens.”
