A Vision of ...

What if ...

Dashboards

Robust, real-time validation of ALLcritical-to-quality signals

Decision support

Management reports

The data in your control rooms could be trusted?

What if ...

Maintenance costs

Reliable, low-maintenance ‘soft’ sensors, to support or supplement data

Sampling & reporting

Process insight

Missing information wasn’t missing any more?

What if ...

Optimal operation

Predictive control of storm events, first flush, load swings, maintenance outages

Minimised costs

Reliable outcomes

Your process could see into the future?

What if ...

Centralised control

Condition monitoring: early warning of sub-optimal performance, auto-optimisation

TOTEX performance

Capital deferment

Your assets were self-monitoring and self-optimising?

What if ...

Asset standards

Live KPI reporting within SCADA: empowers operators, changes culture

Investment decisions

Long term gains

Improvements could be sustained?

What if ...ALL of this was already here?

Data

Univariate / Multivariate

High / Low limit

Frozen signal

Rate of change

T-test: shift in Mean

Q-test: outlier detection / rejection

Signal value vs Process drift / fault
