EEMUA Raises the Bar!
For many years now, the EEMUA organization has spearheaded the development and
dissemination of alarm management guidelines.
Following the publication of EEMUA Guide #191 on Alarm Systems in 1999, the world’s process plants have benefited from a defined set of standards against which to measure the performance of the alarm systems.
Now, the EEMUA, has revised their seminal publication and is launching it at a coming-out party on June 21st in the UK.PAS applauds the work of EEMUA and looks forward to a continued strong impact of their work on industry standards and plant safety.
Past contributions of the EEMUA to the industry have been significant, and we join with EEMUA in the celebration of the launch of their revised publication. If version 191.07 follows in the vein of the original document, then every plant should have a copy.
On the flip side, the hard work by the EEMUA contributors now motivate us to revise and update our own Alarm Management Handbook, as a practical “how-to” guide to help plant personnel implement and achieve the standards set by EEMUA.
Well done, EEMUA, and congratulations!
Now, I guess it’s our turn to sharpen the pencils again!
