APOLLO AUTOMATIONJAMES WARREN · ENGINEERING & PROJECT LEADERSHIPCASE-091 · Engineering case
Developed and coordinated the facility temperature-alarm architecture using remote I/O, compact PLC PLC control, distributed operator display 7 HMIs and operator interface View SE.
The system needed to unify mixed plant areas through relay logic, Remote I/O, distributed HMI visibility, and a master alarm PLC rather than adding standalone temperature controllers.
Engineered and coordinated alarm-relay and audible/visual interfaces through Remote I/O cabinets in Apple Winery and Bulk Vinegar, the master compact PLC alarm PLC in Kosher Winery, distributed operator display 7 HMIs and operator interface View SE visibility in the Bulk Operations control room.
Reduced reliance on manual temperature checks and improved response to fermenter and acetator temperature deviations across Apple Winery, Non-Kosher Winery, Kosher Winery, and Bulk Vinegar operations.

Cooling and Utility Reliability Modernization
Recorded workstream portfolio reference. This is the workstream-level value and is not a project expenditure or a new total of reassigned projects.
Improved facility-wide process-temperature alarm visibility, measured by Remote I/O coordination across Apple Winery and Bulk Vinegar cabinets with centralized compact PLC alarm PLC control, by using relay logic, audible/visual indicators, distributed operator display 7 HMIs, and operator interface View SE coordination.
Controls equipment supplier Remote I/O cabinets in Apple Winery and Bulk Vinegar; master compact PLC Alarm PLC panel in Kosher Winery; distributed operator display 7 and operator interface View SE visibility.
Food and Beverage Manufacturer
Owned the full project lifecycle, from capital planning through commissioning and post-startup support. A temperature excursion becomes a production risk when it remains unseen or does not prompt a timely response.

Full lifecycle project ownership
Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.
Manual temperature checks can delay response to fermentation or quality deviations. Distributed I/O, an alarm PLC, operator displays, historian visibility and text notification address response visibility.
Temperature visibility and process response. Alarm visibility supports timely response to fermenter and acetator deviations.
Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.
Integrated remote I/O, a master alarm PLC and operator displays with the fermenter and acetator measurements. Aligned alarm behavior with operations and maintenance, using automated visibility to reduce missed excursions and protect batches.
