    Research output: Book/ReportReport

    Abstract

    The publication introduces a multidisciplinary approach to operational decision making (operation and maintenance) applied in the Finnish pulp and paper industry. The purpose of the approach is to produce knowledge and methods that support each other and which can be used to improve the support for operational decision making in the declared scope. At the beginning, the current challenges and trends are studied. Then, the selected approaches (normative view, process monitoring and diagnostics view, human dimension, collaborative view, standards and IT technologies) are represented. Finally, these themes are joined together by introducing an example.
