The Smart Use of IT and Mobile Technology
The smart use of IT and handheld data collectors that run AssetWise Performance Management means data management systems are integrated into process plant and other day-to-day operational systems.
This enables the company to drill down from each headline KPI to reveal the underlying causes, trends and transactions in the Bentley APM methodology. With these core systems, ScottishPower can assess performance and drive progress toward targets.
The information is available to everyone in the company at any time and enables them to identify and act upon problems within their system before it affects business or safety.
This information is not stand-alone; it is part of a complete system of plant, people and process residing within a strong leadership framework where senior management understands process safety and asset management that directly links to business performance.
