Digital Operations Logbook

Challenges in Maintaining Manual Logbooks

Most accidents in the process industry are related to errors in communication during shift handover
Manual shift handover is unidirectional
Instructions are often going unnoticed or followed even after their period of applicability
Manual data entry by collecting data from DCS, Lab, EMS, Tanks and SAP etc.
Human Errors in manual data logging/retrieval
Exhaustive and time consuming to consolidate manual log sheets when required
NO real-time visibility and trending of these logged parameters
Searching of an event or comment from Logsheets is tedious
Its is laborious to maintain the physical papers, binders and housekeeping
Modifying and reprinting the layouts is always expensive and time-consuming
