Respond faster to production deviations & hit your daily production targets
With Digital TARP, your team can quickly resolve production deviations with confidence. No more waiting until the next production meeting to figure out how to fix the problem.
Mipac's software is trusted by Operations Managers and Metallurgists at:
Slow responses to production deviations makes your plant less productive
Lack of visibility
In many plants, deviations are spotted late because of manual monitoring methods, like observing historian trends or Excel-based reports.
No standardised responses
Without a standard Trigger Action Response Plan (TARP), operators often need to wait for advice to fix the problem or escalate it.
No lessons learned
Manual, paper-based response plans make it hard to access historical data and improve responses in the future.
Most production deviations are avoidable if they are spotted fast and responded to accurately.
Your team is more effective when people quickly solve problems on their own, instead of coming to you for the answers. Digital TARP helps them fix production deviations quickly and accurately.
Detect production deviations faster
An automated alert from Digital TARP tells you when a deviation occurs and activates the appropriate TARP. You can identify critical problems immediately.
Respond accurately to problems
You can configure Digital TARP with standard response actions for common problems. The software will automatically recommend the correct action response to fix them. This means your team can quickly fix problems on their own and follow the same process each time they occur
Automatically escalate urgent deviations
Digital TARP escalates critical issues if they aren’t responded to in time. Senior team members will get email, SMS, or Teams notifications, so urgent problems get the immediate attention they require.
Full visibility of all responses
You can see the status of all live TARPs. Digital TARP shows you exactly what’s happening, who is handling it, and what they are doing. You can even make comments on TARP actions for easy team coordination and better communication.
Learn from historical data
Every historical TARP is stored with a detailed audit trail. You can access the data to learn from previous mistakes and improve future responses. Update and modify response plans yourself to continuously improve productivity.
Standalone software that integrates with the MPA software suite
You can start using Digital TARP right now as a standalone product to respond quickly to production deviations.
It’s also part of our MPA software suite, a powerful set of tools designed to make it easier to run your process plant.
With the complete suite, you can access live visualisation of every area of your plant on one screen, manage logsheets and alarms more easily, automate your production reporting, and more.

FAQs
Different stakeholders require different notifications. Control Room Operators may have a live TARP view available allowing them to respond immediately to any deviations. Other stakeholders may choose to be notified via Email, Teams, WhatsApp or SMS. Notifications can be configured based on the requirements for each TARP.
Yes, users can enter comments and recommendations on individual TARP actions and as a summary for the entire TARP event.
Absolutely! It is Mipac’s philosophy to transfer capability to our clients so you can build and customise new TARPs to meet your specific operational requirements. Mipac can provide initial support to get you started and then you can extend Digital TARP to other applications or modify existing TARPs.
The Digital TARP application leverages your existing AVEVA PI AF system to generate and capture event information, allowing you to integrate into existing systems and processes where they exist.
The TARP application will give you access to as many TARPs as required for your asset. These TARPs can be used for production, asset, safety and/or environmental purposes. Each TARP can be tailored to meet your operational requirements.
Our solutions can be implemented in as little as two weeks.
The implementation timeframe of our solutions can vary depending on several factors such as the complexity of TARP event triggers and whether there is existing infrastructure in place. If a like-for-like implementation is required, such as moving from paper to Digital TARP, the implementation can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks once the base system is set up. Our solutions can be implemented within this time frame, but it’s important to note that the exact duration will depend on the specific requirements of each project.
