Alarm Response Library (ARL) App
A centralized alarm response management application automating creation, review, and approval of power plant equipment alarm responses.
Fuzion was engaged to modernize and automate a previously manual alarm response process for power plant equipment alarms — historically managed through disconnected emails and Microsoft Word documents and requiring coordination between plant operations, engineering, and an external Owner’s Engineer.
Built on the Microsoft Power Platform and SharePoint, the centralized Alarm Response Management application replaced manual document handling with structured digital workflows that improved visibility, accountability, and review-cycle efficiency.
Key Challenges
- Manual, email-driven alarm response coordination.
- Disconnected Word documents and review workflows.
- Accountability needed across operations, engineering, and external stakeholders.
What We Delivered
- Power Apps–based Alarm Response Management application tailored to the utility’s process.
- Automated creation, review, reroute, and approval workflows with role-based notifications.
- Structured Issued for Review (IFR) and Issued for Construction (IFC) workflows.
- Migration of legacy records into SharePoint with versioning, plus Power BI reporting and Teams/Outlook integration.
Business Impact
- Replaced manual, email-driven processes with a structured, auditable framework.
- Improved review-cycle discipline and ensured responses were approved prior to implementation.
- Established a scalable foundation for future operational automation.
