Experience with alarm rationalizationJob Description :
Insight Global is seeking a Process Engineer to support an Alarm Rationalization Project at a pharmaceutical manufacturing site in the Sanford, NC area. This initiative aims to optimize alarm systems across critical equipment including HVAC systems, refrigerators, freezers, and batch-specific assets such as fermenters. The goal is to establish a robust, site-wide response protocol for all relevant alarms quality, safety, and nuisance—while eliminating non-value-add alerts.
Responsibilities :
Equipment AssessmentCapture the “as-is” alarm state for ~1000 pieces of equipment.Document alarm types and set points for both continuous and batch-specific systems.Change Control ImplementationSupport the formal change control process for alarm updates and rationalization.Collaborate with site stakeholders to align alarm response protocols.Alarm OptimizationIdentify and eliminate non-value-add alarms (e.g., those not tied to safety, product output, or yield).Rationalize alarms based on impact and necessity.On-Site Engineering SupportEvaluate and update alarm configurations directly on the floor.Work hands-on with equipment such as freezers (high-high / low-low alarms), HVAC systems, and fermenters.Ensure licensed product alarms are properly configured and responded to.
