Alarm Management is a key element in managing the operational risk of every facility. However, poor handling of the alarm systems – plagued by alarm floods, inaccurate alarms, and suppressed alarms – will diminish situation awareness and continue to negatively impact plant production and safety. An effective alarm system optimization strategy, one that leverages a proven methodology enabled by software automation, addresses these challenges making operators more effective during abnormal situations.
Participants attending Proclad Academy’s Advanced Alarm Management training course will learn and apply best practices in alarm management using real world examples and tools. They will return to their jobs not only with a better understanding of alarm management best practices but also equipped with a set of practical set of techniques, procedures and tools to optimise their alarm management system to increase the productivity, efficiency, product quality, safety, integrity, and security of their processes.
