Abnormal Situation Management

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Abnormal Situation Management (ASMĀ®) Consortium is a long-running and active Honeywell-led research and development consortium of 13 companies and universities that are concerned about the negative effects of industrial plant incidents. It aims to identify problems facing industrial plant operations during abnormal conditions, and to develop solution concepts. Deliverables include products and services, guideline and other documents, and information-sharing workshops; all incorporating ASM knowledge. Abnormal Situation ManagementĀ® is achieved by Prevention, Early Detection, and Mitigation of abnormal situations, thereby reducing unplanned outages, process variability, fires, explosions and emissions that are reducing profits and putting plant employees and local residents at risk.
