  • Patent number: 11726447
    Abstract: A quality review management system may be used to analyze the operation of manufacturing processes within a plant based on data collected by various data sources in the plant, such as batch executive applications, to automatically detect, store, and display exceptions within those processes for use by a quality review engineer to determine if the process operation meets certain quality standards. The quality review management system includes a configuration application that enables a user to create one or more exception rules, an exception engine that analyses process data using the rules to detect one or more exceptions within the process, and a review application that enables quality review personnel to review each determined exception for resolution purposes.

  • Publication number: 20220300502
    Abstract: A system for securely and efficiently obtaining data from a process plant and processing that data for consumption by one or more external applications or systems includes receiving event data from various data sources in or associated with a plant via various different data formats and data communication structures at a centralized server or gateway, striping off the communication format structure from the data, placing the data, including metadata associated with the data, into an event stream, and making the data in the event stream available to a processing infrastructure that processes that data in a comprehensive and robust manner for easy consumption by external data mining, data visualization and data analytic systems or applications.

  • Publication number: 20210034034
    Abstract: A quality review system may be used to analyze the operation of manufacturing processes within a plant based on data collected by various data sources in the plant to automatically detect, store and display predetermined conditions within the process effecting the quality of the product produced by the plant. The quality review system includes a configuration application that enables a user to create one or more monitoring rules, a monitoring application that collects data from the process and that uses the monitoring rules during operation of the process to analyze the process data to detect one or more predetermined conditions within the process, and an external receiver that stores and/or uses the messages pertaining to the detected predetermined conditions.
