Alarm Management Services
The pursuit of operational excellence is a constant for most manufacturers in the Chemical Processing Industry (CPI). Business drivers such as improving safety, minimizing unplanned downtime, and increasing productivity are critical success factors in this pursuit. Achieving these business goals is made more challenging as production runs ever close to equipment and facility operating limits. Alarm Management can deliver benefits in all of these areas.
Following the ISA-18.2 standard is a great way to create a new alarm management program or to upgrade existing practices and procedures. ISA18.2 provides a framework for the successful design, implementation, operation and management of alarm systems. It contains guidance to help prevent and eliminate the most common alarm management problems, as well as a methodology for measuring and analyzing performance of the alarm system.
