Planning, organizing and steering process control activities for maximum success
Advanced Process Control (APC) is the most cost and time effective way to increase the profitability of a plant. The full credits however are only achieved where technology and resources are used in a carefully planned way. ACT can help you to capture these additional benefits by simple and inexpensive means:
· A
Performance Monitoring System, a vital instrument to locate
under-performing equipment and/or
controllers and to provide hard, credible proof of the achieved
improvements
· Short feasibility & incentive studies to determine hidden, untapped opportunities for low cost, lasting improvements. Typical immediate side effects: Improved operations and better process understanding
· A Master Plan to ensure that application development follows the most profitable path and that all prerequisites (measurements, analyzers, technology, training etc.) are available in time
· A Technology Set for ready access to the most suitable control and optimization techniques
· Training to ensure that best use of these techniques is made and work is done most efficiently
· Standards on tag naming, displays, applications, documentation for fastest application development, easy and safe use, minimum maintenance, highest service factor

Our unique seminar "Advanced Process Control - the Business Impact" for plant, project and IT management
· Raises the awareness of the economical benefits
· Explains why and where management support and attention is vital
· Describes the various sources of credits and the mechanisms for capturing them
· Points at the most promising areas for profit improvement
· Explains how to locate and exploit opportunities previously out of reach
· Shows how to make better use of all resources.
Gain from the experience of the most successful users (proven by hard cash figures) and from know-how not available anywhere else. Contact us for the next seminar date. We also offer a PC slide-show on Advanced Process Control covering the motivation for APC, the direct and indirect benefits, the mechanisms to capture them, the barriers and roadblocks, how to locate and exploit opportunities, the key success factors and the role of management.
