Popis: | The chemical industry is responsible for process management safety at all of its facilities, especially those that have off-site consequences in the event of an unplanned release. This research is analyzing the current practices for emergency response for chemical facilities and will provide a model that could be utilized by small or large chemical facilities. Business process modeling was used to capture information requirements of extant incident response for chemical facilities. It will determine what technologies, specifically software and information systems, could be utilized to improve the chemical facility emergency response mechanism. The results will provide an optimal process model for an improved solution for an emergency response mechanism. This research-in-progress will produce a model emergency response mechanism, represented in a business process model, for a typical chemical facility. |
