Trick
Are the Operators Playing DCS ?
If your operators constantly manipulate set points or frequently change modes, you should consider adding more control or automation strategies.
To identify problematic areas:
- Look at SP activity with Control Performance Monitor
- Look at intervention counts per day with alarm management tools
Operators should not be doing DCS's and PLC's work.
We can help you develop control and automation strategies to free your operators' time and automate repetitive work.
