In this special guest feature, Edwin Elmendorp, Information Architect, Kinsmen Group<\/a>, points out that many opportunities exist for using BIG data technologies in manufacturing, while some are still in a research phase, others are usable products that offer cost beneficial approached available for small and large organizations by using modern platforms. Edwin lives in Houston Texas and has close to 20 years of consulting experience in Engineering Information Management. After initially graduating as an electrical instrumentation engineer, he moved on, added a Computer Science degree, and recently graduated cum laude with a Master\u2019s in Business Process Management and IT. Aside from a solid academic background, Edwin has worked with many owner-operators to digitally transform how companies manage their information assets spanning many different software solutions<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Process Manufacturing companies are constantly scrutinized to adhere to the highest and safest workplace standards. The Occupational Health Administration (OSHA) plays a key role in the enforcement of safety guidelines and when companies have incidents, the fines can run up to millions of dollars. OSHA has defined standards such as Process Safety Management (PSM) that help companies identify, control, and mitigate safety risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Process safety data is locked in many different sources and are a combination of structured, unstructured, static, and dynamic information. Pankaj et al, provide the following overview in this – Figure 1. When we look at this overview, it is easy to see the various attributes for BIG data, also called the 7 V\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
