time
• If we are able to measure all major assets/processes in
m3/hr
• Then we will be able to quantify Throughput Analytics

– No Data Historian
– Local HMI for visualization
– Inadequate Metering
 Qualitative Throughput
 Intuitive Based Decision Making
 Did NOT have flow rate visibility!
 Hard to measure
 Hard to manage resources (Capital & Labor)
