Building Automation Alarm Management Tool
ASHE has developed a tool to help members make the decisions necessary for an alarm management plan. The plan will define the risk, response and escalation required for each alarm type. This will allow operators to prioritize the alarms as they arrive and take appropriate action for each, while providing a clear path for escalation when an alarm goes unacknowledged.
