Expanding on last week’s podcast, in this report Larry O’Brien from Arc Advisory Group highlights how WIN-911 is helping plant operators and technicians in critical infrastructure like water treatment plants, power generation facilities, and other essential services bridge the gap between control room and home office. O’Brien argues that government-imposed distancing restrictions has fast-tracked the industry shift towards remote solutions that enable secure access to monitoring critical plant operations. In fact, he says, if you have an automation IoT project on the go, this isn’t the time to “put the brakes on, but to accelerate it.”
O’brien goes on to say that real-time data is a must if you want to keep your plant operating smoothly and the smart processing that WIN-911 provides with monitoring machine alerts and alarms is a great example of how to do this quickly and cost-effectively. “Industrial IoT-based solutions for remote alarm and event notification like WIN-911 provide the advantage of quick and “touchless” installation on top of multiple installed control systems and HMI workstations, and can be installed under the operational budget.”
