System management is a set of activities
that are designed to control changes by identifying the items that are
likely to change, establishing relationships among them, controlling
changes that are imposed, and auditing and reporting on the changes
that are made. System management includes configuration management,
alarm and operator action analysis, alarm system management and overall
system documentation.
When dealing with Distributed Control Systems, System Management is a continual effort. foxray™
by LimeWare was designed to tackle this effort of continuously
documenting and managing the Foxboro I/A DCS configuration with 100%
confidence.
foxray™also leverages
this continual documentation of the DCS system to provide actionable
information to improve the system's performance, process performance,
improved operator effectiveness and overall system health. All this
actionable information leads to improved reliability, productivity and
safety.
