Abstract

E-Famemain is a new kind of a tool for benchmarking, which is based on many years’ research efforts. It helps to evaluate users’ performance in operations and maintenance by making industrial plants comparable with the aid of statistical methods. The system is updated continually and automatically. It carries out automatically multivariate statistical analysis when data is entered into the system, in addition to many other statistical operations. The system consists of four sections: data input section, positioning section, locating differences section and best practices and planning section.
