July 12, 2006 - Atlanta - PM Event Analyzer is a post-process tool that allows complex process industries such as Pulp and Paper, Steel, Chemicals, Energy, Mining, Semi-conductor and high speed applications the ability to instantly determine not only why a process went wrong but what the root cause of the problem was. PM Event Analyzer makes use of any type of data historian such as OSI PI, Rockwell, GE, WonderWare or any SQL-based repository, and extracts the necessary information to present to the user the statistical variables of the cause of a problem. "Today's process manufacturers are focused on improvement within their organizations for better quality, lower cost or faster time to market," said Gary Hopkins, President and CEO of SlipStream Software.
"PM Event Analyzer is the answer to the 'last mile' question. Today's real-time KPIs and SPC charts can tell a customer that something is wrong but cannot provide exactly what caused the problem. Customers who are trying to do root cause usually have to spend vast amounts of time to get to the root of the process issue. PM Event Analyzer is the first type product that shows the customer exactly what caused their problems.
With this type of powerful information, manufacturers can now truly focus on real process improvement.”PM Event Analyzer is already installed in several plant facilities in the U.S., including such companies as MeadWestvaco and International Paper.
