The only composite Key Performance Indicator (KPI) engine available on the market, Visual KPI delivers on-demand, business-critical data about process manufacturing and utility operations to any hand-held or desktop browser.
"The innovative Transpara Visual KPI technology will provide important incremental value for our large installed base of automation customers," said Chris Lyden, vice president of global marketing at Invensys Process Systems: "This new technology will enable personnel in the process manufacturing and utility plants of our customers to remotely monitor - in near-real-time - both process variables and custom-defined KPIs from their familiar hand-held mobile computing or communications devices, including both PDAs and smartphones".
Consistent with the Invensys open, platform-independent solution approach, the composite source data for the KPIs can come from a variety of different data sources.
These include OSIsoft PI System or the Invensys InSQL or InFusion plant historians in conjunction with any Invensys or non-Invensys automation, information, or computerised maintenance management (CMMS) platform.
With Visual KPI, users can easily create and customise composite KPIs and scorecards using data from any combination of existing systems - including the OSIsoft PI System, SQL Server, Oracle, OLE DB and Web Services - and publish them for instant use by anyone in the organisation or supply chain, from plant floor managers to executives.
Visual KPI offers real-time insight into organisational performance by delivering actionable decision-support information directly to the responsible user.
This helps to lower business risk and promote corporate transparency.
