We thought for sure we knew how our plants were running, but the information provided by Plant Watcher highlighted new opportunities for efficiency and cost savings. The real- time notification by Plant Watcher of an out of specification load for a critical pour alerts our QC department, day or night, to step in and prevent that load from being placed!
