First there was The Alarm Management Handbook released by PAS in May 2006.
Co-authored by Eddie Habibi and Bill Hollifield, both of PAS.
Many sell-outs, multiple printings.
A big hit with customers – even a year later, we are still receiving bulk orders.
Priced at $89.95.
Then there was Alarm Management: Seven Effective Methods for Optimum Performance as released by the ISA in March 2007.
Co-authored by Eddie Habibi and Bill Hollifield, both of PAS.
Priced at $89.00.
Also a big seller.
And last week, on April 21, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) has published the "Alarm Management and Annunciator Guidelines"
This time the book is coauthored by PAS and EPRI – with strong contributions by our now-famous authors.
This book also promises to be a best-seller – especially since alarm management is THE HOT TOPIC – in the U.S. power industry anyway.
EPRI doesn’t publish their member prices, but this Guideline has so much valuable content in it, and is so apropos to today’s need that the list non-member price is set accordingly.
You can visit www.erpi.com to find out the non-member price (search for "alarm management guideline" and follow the links provided).
Once find the price, though, you might want to consider joining EPRI for the “insider discount”....
Or you can think about how otherwise to spend funds that would otherwise buy…
Obviously, the SEVEN STEPS of ALARM MANAGEMENT as defined by PAS are pretty important!
Still haven’t read the book?
