DelveX OT · Control room and alarms
Help operators see what matters, when it matters
Most control rooms were designed around the systems, not the decisions operators have to make. Alarm floods, cluttered screens and workarounds follow, and they show up as lost production and near misses.
When it fits
- Alarm floods during upsets, or alarms operators have learned to ignore
- Near misses or incidents where the information was there but not seen
- A control system upgrade or a new control room is planned
What you get
- A review of the key decisions operators make and the information each one needs
- Alarm load measured against ISA-18.2, with a rationalisation plan
- An HMI assessment against ISA-101
- A prioritised improvement plan
How it runs
- Observe shifts and interview operators and supervisors
- Analyse alarm and event data
- Review the displays and the control room layout
- Present the findings and the plan
DelveX leads the review of operator decisions, alarms and displays. Where the scope calls for deeper control room design, we bring in a specialist control room partner.
