How do I benchmark and what tools do I need to carry one out?\u00a0It will be hosted by Ian Brown, Alarm Rationalisation and Services Manager at MAC Solutions (UK) and will take place on 14th March 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Advice and guidance will also be provided on topics such as: the relevant industry standards and guidelines; structured interviews; statistical analysis of alarm rates and KPIs; the benefits of benchmarking; and what to do after a benchmark assessment is completed.<\/p>\n<p>Ian Brown\u00a0comments: &#8220;A benchmark assessment is not simply a numerical analysis of the number and rate of alarms being presented to the operators. A benchmark assessment should employ a holistic approach where every aspect of alarm management is thoroughly examined and compared against legislative, regulatory and corporate obligations, the requirements of standards and industry best practice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A thorough benchmark assessment represents a significant undertaking and is a process that requires preparation, detailed examination of all alarm management aspects, and subsequently, the compilation of a thorough report providing a gap analysis between requirements and realities with recommendations for actions required to close the gaps,&#8221; he adds..<\/p>\n<p>M.A.C.
