We recognize thatoperational staff have a thoroughunderstanding of how best to manage theirown facility. Thus, to leverage theirknowledge, we gain input from operationspersonnel at the onset of our projects. Thisenhances the operators’ knowledge of theircontrol system from day one and providesthe basis for user friendly graphics.Moreover, this approach allows for theoperators, as the end users, to take anactive role in defining the foundation of thegraphical infrastructure and to gainownership of the final delivered product.Behind the scenes, well defined and well-documented scripting is provided to enhancefeatures often not found in core graphicalinterface offerings, such as: display recalls,advanced trending, and other custominterfaces.PLANNING FOR THE UNEXPECTEDAt Signature Automation, we understand thatproviding a control algorithm, which strictlyadheres to the process control descriptions,meets only the basics of the actual needs.Our philosophy is to go beyond this byassessing contingencies for probableerroneous scenarios. Early planning with thisin mind allows the users to maintain propercontrol of the overall treatment processeswhen faced with unexpected or abnormalconditions.INTUITIVE OPERATIONAL REPORTSThe extra effort we provide throughout thesystem development is carried forth intomethodologies we use to configure thehistorical system and the operational reports.We recognize that views of time-series datais simply not enough information for longterm assessment of treatment processes.Our historical collection and reportingschemes utilize aggregations, which providefor missing and anomalous data that moreaccurately depicts plant performance.EFFICIENT COMMISSIONINGThorough offsite testing is critical to efficientcommissioning once the system reachesthe jobsite. “Field time” is not the time todetermine what is to be provided orprogrammed. To address this, we performexhaustive quality control testing of oursystems, which fall in line with ISA 62381and 62382. Our testing is based on causeand effect scenarios that demonstrate thenormal operational modes as well as theanticipated failure contingencies. Wewelcome and encourage over the shoulderreviews by our clients throughout the testingphases.CLIENT TAILORED TRAININGProviding a superior products falls short ifthe end users are not able to efficientlyutilize or maintain their system. SignatureAutomation conducts expert training tailoredspecifically to each individual client.Comprehensive training manuals withdetailed visual aides and real worldexercises supplement the student’sunderstanding of the material. Additionally,we offer optional video tutorials and self-directed training simulations. These trainingmaterials not only support the coursecurriculum, but are also invaluable asreference material through the life of thesystem.ADDITIONAL SERVICESWhile our primary focus is on the controlsystem software, Signature Automation hasdeveloped relationships with leadingtechnology firms to provide the full gamut ofcontrol system solutions.
