Operations Perspective
As the ultimate "user" of the alarm system, Operations is uniquely
positioned to monitor and motivate an alarm management effort. Look
at it like taking control of your own destiny. When Operations has
ownership of the alarm system design, you're empowered to prioritize
alarm review and to ensure that the design supports and enhances
your efforts to maintain normal operating states.
We understand that while having control over alarms makes perfect sense, you have a lot of other things to worry about and don't want to be bogged down analyzing alarm activity, debating design details, or chasing people around the plant trying to get approval for a change. That's why LogMate has been designed to help you manage and maintain the alarm system as a part of normal, everyday tasks.
Most operating teams use a combination of two mechanisms for flagging
an alarm for review, activity assessments and operator identification.
Assessing alarm activity will tell you statistically the alarms
that should be reviewed, but there's no substitute for someone hauling
you into the control room and pointing an angry finger at a flashing
red light saying,
"Fix it!". LogMate supports both approaches,
and balances them very nicely.
We think you'll appreciate having control of the alarm management
process, and we also think you'll enjoy how LogMate makes it easy
to incorporate alarm management tasks into everyday activities.
Give us a call and give us an opportunity to prove it to you!
