  • Control asset comparative performance analysis system and methodology
    Patent number: 8718976
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for determining the variability induced on a process output. The method includes the analysis of input variable values to determine the total variability. A series of processes may be analyzed and ranked so that a process owner may gain an understanding of how a target process performs relative to the processes of other process owners. The method includes the generation of graphical process comparisons and advice regarding asset performance. The method also includes the estimation of cost impacts due to changes in induced variability.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 1, 2011
    Date of Patent: May 6, 2014
    Assignee: HSB Solomon Associates, LLC
    Inventors: John P. Havener, Gregory D. Martin, Russell F. Brown, William Horner, Richard B. Jones
