1 XHQ Performance Management Measure, communicate, evaluate and analyze your operational performance Answers for energy.

2 XHQ Performance Management Measure, communicate, evaluate and analyze your operational performance XHQ Performance Management is a comprehensive suite of Web 2.0 applications that support the continuous improvement cycle of your operations. Extending the scalable, proven XHQ framework, XHQ Performance Management provides the means to calculate key performance indicators (KPIs), set operational goals and benchmark performance against them. Leveraging the cross-source data integration available in XHQ Performance Management enables fact-based, decision making from all operational and business data available in your plant. Customers experience an inexpensive deployment cycle based on out-of-box industry standards that leverage the world-class experience of Siemens consultants and results in a shorter timeto-value return on investment.

3 XHQ Performance Management helps integrate the processes of: Defining and managing key performance indicators (KPIs) Setting operational targets and performance benchmarks Defining operating envelopes for improved asset reliability Associating active alerts with target and operating envelope deviations to allow monitoring by exception of all critical equipment and processes Assigning reasons and comments for operational and performance gaps Providing plant personnel with analysis tools to continuously improve plant performance and identify root causes of performance deviations Performing cross-unit and cross-plant comparisons of performance on a normalized basis for meaningful analysis of best and worst performing assets throughout your corporation.

4 Act Identify root causes for deviations Review plant feedback Monitor and analyze KPIs Perform cross-unit/plant analysis for best/worst actors. Plan Define KPIs from strategic objectives Set operational and business targets Define benchmarks to measure performance Develop strategy for capturing failure reasons and comments. Check Monitor critical equipent by exception Assign reasons for operational gaps Use dashboards for instant insight of operational performance. Do Define operating envelopes and limits Create active alerts for target deviations Automate handover processes and capturing of critical parameters. XHQ Performance Management is a key enabler for the continuous improvement cycle Potential benefits Real-time management of operational performance Calculate and monitor plant-, area-, unit- and asset-based performance measures automatically as soon as data is available Benchmark performance metrics against operational targets, plant and company best-achieved values and industry best-in-class values Assign reason code and comments for operational gaps Review and analyze key performance indicator (KPI) performance to identify improvement opportunities. Lower operating costs due to better asset reliability Create and manage multiple operating envelopes for critical equipment Enable rapid root cause analysis of failures, defects and variances Actively alert operations with visual and notifications on critical or warning zones Enable proactive, rather than reactive, operations. Increase workforce efficiency Enhance personalization of dashboards to allow users to create their own operational targets and active alerts Automated handover reporting process for shift, day and other operational period reporting Deliver common contextualized view of information based on role and responsible areas in the plant Clearly communicate operational and business goals to all levels of the organization through a single common interface Instant visibility of targets and comments in operating dashboards and visualizations. Foster continuous improvement cycle Assist in the translation of business plans to operational targets with the definition of KPIs Communicate operational targets directly in operational views Provide reasons and feedback on challenges for meeting assigned targets Calculate and benchmark KPIs to assess performance Update plans and targets to account for changing market conditions and operations.

Together these applications can be deployed as an extension to existing XHQ installations or as a standalone application. The XHQ Performance Management suite plays a key role in maintaining communications between operators on the plant floor and management using proven work process integration methodologies. Operational transparency is achieved through a common view of plant performance across the different functional processes from the supply chain, to operations and maintenance, to finished products. Customers are now able to empower stakeholders at all levels of the organization with continuously updated operational key performance indicators (KPIs) in real time.

6 With its integrated analysis and reporting tools, XHQ Performance Management helps turn data into actionable information. XHQ Performance Management provides the measurement, analysis and reporting capability for communicating, monitoring and benchmarking key performance indicators (KPIs). In addition to key operating parameters, such as throughput, cut points and other operational temperatures, pressures and flows, XHQ Performance Management can be implemented to calculate and monitor values such as overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), asset utilization (AU), maintenance reliability, energy intensity index (EII), furnace efficiencies and heat exchanger fouling. Providing real-time calculation and monitoring of these critical KPIs enable plant engineers and management with the information needed to drive optimal performance in today s competitive environment. XHQ Performance Management allows your company to unlock the organizational knowledge and KPIs from disparate sources and capture the wealth of information held only in the minds of experts. This process keeps valuable information available even as your workforce turns over or retires.

7 XHQ Performance Management components Target Management Provides an environment to manage key performance indicators (KPIs) targets for optimal operations Creates limits to define the safe operating envelopes for critical equipment Measures and tracks KPIs in real time Eliminates the delay of spreadsheet-based reporting of KPIs Drill-down capability for detailed performance insight Creates targets and limits in a meaningful information model tailored to your plant Alert Notification System (ANS) Allows monitoring by exception of critical operational targets and limits Automated data collection and condition-based alerting allow for efficient operations User- or system-based alert subscription and notification configurations Notifications can be routed via or SMS messages elogs Automated reporting reduces errors with manual paper-based logging systems Electronically records operator logs and associates them to shifts, assets, events, work orders, etc., allowing for easy searching and filtering Integrates with the shift handover reporting, morning meeting or intrashift work processes, including the entry of routine parameters Captures the root cause reasons and comments for operational gaps and down time Allows users to collaborate and exchange information pertaining to any event or alert Features Contextualized, composite KPI calculations based on automated data collection of operational and business data Web-based thin client interface for dashboards, multi-dimensional analysis, trends and reports Role and functional responsibilities provide contextsensitive views fully integrated with Microsoft Windows Active Directory Intuitive, user-friendly administration and configuration clearly separating the role of the business user and the IT support staff Bi-directional integration with leading historians (PI, PHD, IP.21) for accessing real-time data and propagating KPIs and targets into central repositories and SMS text alerting on event detections, such as KPI threshold deviations Stores comprehensive, auditable target, limit and KPI data for historical analysis Allows bulk import and export of KPIs, and targets to/from Microsoft Excel and XML
