Systems and methods for the collaborative design, construction, and maintenance of fluid processing plants are provided. A collaborative commerce application may provide project management utilities, visualization utilities, dynamic pricing utilities, material procurement utilities, and certification utilities. These features may be integrated seamlessly into the collaborative commerce application. Communication among project team members in the design and construction of fluid processing plants may be made more efficient by providing automatic notifications via the collaborative commerce application. Version control may be used to ensure project team members are working with the latest designs and revisions. Access controls and other security features may be used to prevent confidential data from being disseminated unnecessarily.

What is claimed is: 1. A computerized method for using a collaborative commerce application to provide a user with information associated with a first component that is part of a second component of a fluid processing plant, comprising: in a first computer process executed by a computer processor,
What is claimed is: 1. A computerized method for using a collaborative commerce application to provide a user with information associated with a first component that is part of a second component of a fluid processing plant, comprising: in a first computer process executed by a computer processor, displaying a two-dimensional drawing of the second component on a display at a client site, wherein the first component is included in the two-dimensional drawing, and wherein data used to display the two-dimensional drawing is stored at a central site in a computer aided design format for a three-dimensional graphical model; in a second computer process executed by the computer processor, providing the user with the ability to select a portion of the two-dimensional drawing that is associated with the first component; and in a third computer process executed by a computer processor, displaying the information associated with the first component on the display, wherein the information associated with the first component is stored at the central site and includes information associated with the three-dimensional graphical model, and wherein displaying the information further comprises selectively displaying information selected from a group consisting of a two-dimensional graphical model, a three-dimensional graphical model, text, a bill of materials, and any combination thereof. 2. The method of claim 1 further comprising, in a fourth computer process executed by the computer processor, displaying a three-dimensional graphical model of the second component along with the two-dimensional drawing on the display at the client site. 3. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing the user with the ability to edit the information. 4. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing the user with the ability to redline the information. 5. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing the user with the ability to edit the two-dimensional drawing. 6. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing the user with the ability to redline the two-dimensional drawing. 7. A system for using a collaborative commerce application to provide a user with information associated with a first component that is part of a second component of a fluid processing plant, the system configured to: display a two-dimensional drawing of the second component on a display at a client site, wherein the first component is included in the two-dimensional drawing, and wherein data used to display the two-dimensional drawing is stored at a central site in a computer aided design format for a three-dimensional graphical model; provide the user with the ability to select a portion of the two-dimensional drawing that is associated with the first component; and display the information associated with the first component on the display, wherein the information associated with the first component is stored at the central site and includes information associated with the three-dimensional graphical model, and wherein displaying the information further comprises selectively displaying information selected from a group consisting of a two-dimensional graphical model, a three-dimensional graphical model, text, a bill of materials, and any combination thereof. 8. The system of claim 7 wherein the system is further configured to display a three-dimensional graphical model of the second component along with the two-dimensional drawing on the display at the client site. 9. The system of claim 7 further configured to provide the user with the ability to edit the information. 10. The system of claim 7 further configured to provide the user with the ability to redline the information. 11. The system of claim 7 further configured to provide the user with the ability to edit the two-dimensional drawing. 12. The system of claim 7 further configured to provide the user with the ability to redline the two-dimensional drawing. 13. A system for using a collaborative commerce application to provide a user with information associated with a first component that is part of a second component of a fluid processing plant, comprising: means for displaying a two-dimensional drawing of the second component on a display at a client site, wherein the first component is included in the two-dimensional drawing, and wherein data used to display the two-dimensional drawing is stored at a central site in a computer aided design format for a three-dimensional graphical model; means for providing the user with the ability to select a portion of the two-dimensional drawing that is associated with the first component; and means for displaying the information associated with the first component on the display, wherein the information associated with the first component is stored at the central site and includes information associated with the three-dimensional graphical model, and wherein displaying the information further comprises selectively displaying information selected from a group consisting of a two-dimensional graphical model, a three-dimensional graphical model, text, a bill of materials, and any combination thereof. 14. The system of claim 13 further comprising: means for providing the user with the ability to edit at least one of the information and the two-dimensional drawing. 15. The system of claim 13 further comprising: means for providing the user with the ability to redline at least one of the information and the two-dimensional drawing.
