These include globali- tion, increased earning per share expectation, increasing safety and environmental legislation, staff retirement, shortage of engineers and increasingly rapid evolution of technology. To be successful, process manufacturing companies must respond by: Consistently improving safety and environmental performance Becoming more responsive to customers Reducing manufacturing costs Reducing working capital Improving equipment life There are many approaches to achieving these improvements such as improvement of process equipment and ?owsheets, staff training, work process improvement, organizational restructuring and, in particular, process automation.
