Location profiles

A location profile provides the details that you can use to assess the impact of planned or unplanned maintenance shutdowns. To assist with capacity planning, you can include the personnel at the location.

The type of location profile that is created depends on the decisions that are made by the production engineers and the operations manager at your facility.

You can review the production data that you add to location profiles. The production data for locations can be compared for different production periods. Based on the results of the comparison, defects or errors that can cause a loss in production capability can be identified and corrected. Decisions can be made to increase or to decrease the capacity based on the data that is gathered. To determine the production loss during a shutdown, you can use the production data that is collected.

You can review the type of personnel, such as persons on board, that are associated with the location profile. To evaluate the constraints on the number of persons on board when you plan work, you can review the location profile. You can also use the location profile to ensure that the safety equipment matches the type of work that is being done.
