Hazenberg calls for survey participants

22 August 2007

MBA researcher, Willem Hazenberg, from Newport International University has undertaken a research project titled, ‘Selection and decision-making criteria for a Distributed Control System in the process industry’.

Hazenberg is well known in the process control world and was previously chairman of the Honeywell EMEA User group and a member of the Global UIS. Furthermore he has, in the past, worked with Emerson, Foxboro, Honeywell, Valmet and Siemens Systems.

It is intended that the research will expand the knowledge partly documented by P. Lukas (1986), ISA (1991) and TNO (1995) and will help users improve and speedup the selection process.

This research will define the core selection criteria and their priorities for the purchase of a Distributed Control system. It will also design a decision-making model to further improve decision-making for new systems.

Hazenberg is now calling for input from end users, system integrators and DCS vendors. The survey will shut on 1 October 2007 and the outcomes will be available, free-of-charge, for survey participants.
