EVENT MONITOR WORK ORDER CREATION Event monitor attached to DCS/SCADA control system triggering an engineered work order for an inspection, out-of-tolerance, operational count, alarm level activity, fault sequence occurrence or other user defined event. Process produces an automated work order with work instruction and supportive equipment information.
METHOD Automatic Background Task	BENEFIT Automated production of pre-engineered work order(s)	PAYBACK Inspection or work activity instigated at potential failure level rather than failure level, reducing the cost of rectification Minimizing intrusive maintenance and/or frequency based PM costs to optimum PM activity
COMMENT Process operates on EVENT triggers defined with auto create policy	TANGIBLE SAVING SUBSTANTIAL RESOURCE SAVINGS AND POTENTIAL MULTIPLE FAILURE REPAIR COST DUE TO PROMPT NOTIFICATION
