The Business School
focuses on improving plant profitability. You'll learn how to improve
plant efficiency for higher output and lower costs,
how to reduce costs and increase availability by streamlining maintenance
strategies, and how to improve profitability using the
structured metric of Overall Equipment Effectiveness.

Each of the areas above affects plant efficiency. But you may have already reached a practical limit on the improvements
possible with traditional process automation. So what do you do
when management and customers demand that you do even more
with even less? These courses show how you can go beyond
the limited capabilities of traditional automation architectures
and use predictive intelligence to increase output and reduce
costs - for plant efficiency improvements of 2% or more.

There are several ways you can optimize your process to
improve profitability. But it can be difficult to understand the overall
effectiveness of a complex operation so you can decide where to make improvements.
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) can help. Learn how you can
use this structured metric to evaluate the health and reliability of your
process and equipment.
A well-managed maintenance program can improve the bottom line by increasing
plant uptime, throughput, and quality. But inefficient maintenance practices
can eat into profits. See how to optimize the positive impact of maintenance
by viewing it in terms of both cost reduction and operational improvement.
