Seminole County
Implement a mobile process management system to ensure the safety of the more than 46 million gallons of water produced each day
“The best part about the SmartGlance (now AVEVA Insight) alerts, is that we get to the problem before it becomes a problem, and the residents of Seminole county never see a problem.”
Goals
- To implement a mobile process management system to ensure the safety of the more than 46 million gallons of wat produced each day
- To enable field operators to access critical data via mobile devices for immediate decision-making onsite
Challenges
- Had to keep an operator 24 hrs. a day at a SCADA desk or waiting for alarms to come in and people called or paged out
- The County needed aa better method to access data from the Process Historian and communicate it to operators in the field
Results
- Actionable data with alarm points that can now be accessed in the field on any type of mobile device to effectively manage the production of 46 million gallons of water each day
- Answers are provided to operators within minutes instead of a 1/2 hour to manage operations of Seminole County’s 10 Infrastructure
- Having real-time data accessible on mobile devices eliminates the need to have managers drive to a water plant to take care of an issue
- Operators receive alerts before alarms occur, enabling them to address an issue before it becomes a problem, and before the County’s 440,000 residents know there’s a problem
