In this first edition of the Solution Spotlight series – which will focus on how individual j5 Operations Management Software applications solve problems and add value to industrial sites worldwide – we feature the j5 Operations Logbook:
The Problem
On every industrial site, there is a stream of operations, maintenance and safety events occurring at all levels and areas within the process. Unfortunately, there are still inadequate, time consuming methods such as paper, word processor, spreadsheet and homegrown applications being used to log these events. This increases organisational risk and inefficiencies. Crucial daily information such as Shift Handover reports can be error prone and take time to aggregate. This information is also poorly categorized, time-consuming to retrieve and not widely accessible. Poor traditional methods of data logging are not integrated with other software, such as Data Historians and CMMS systems, resulting in dual capture and information silos:

Often a combination of the above tools is used at Shift Handover, adding even more confusion and black holes of data to the process. Unfortunately, these information gaps – which can appear during a poor Shift Handover process – have resulted with disastrous consequences highlighted by these 10 Industrial Accidents Where Poor Shift Handover Was a Contributory Factor:
