Chapter 1: Introduction
Chapter 1: Introduction
The eSOMS Suite Mobile Operator Rounds application is the solution for plant operations management data
collection and analysis needs in a mobile environment. Mobile Operator Rounds provides the software tools
that not only eliminate the need for paper-based procedures, rounds, and log sheets in the field, but that also
bring about a whole new level of power and flexibility to plant operators.
Mobile Operator Rounds 2.2 is compatible with iOS, Android and Windows mobile devices and is designed to
automate in-the-field data collection, trending, and analysis activities. It provides tour and record detail,
powerful computational analysis, conditional alerts and instructions, notes, and personnel performance
information. The system is an optional component of the eSOMS Suite Operator Rounds module and can be
used to eliminate the inefficiencies of paper-based data collection and analysis of plant operating data.
Note: The screen captures in this document were generated mainly from an Android tablet device, depending
on your operating system and screen size, the layout of the screen may vary somewhat. Also, the specific
functionality of some of the controls, for example selecting a date, may have a different look and feel.
Mobile Operator Rounds allows multiple plant tours to be downloaded to mobile computers and performed in
the field. During performance readings, calculations, compliance with instructions, notes, user identification
information (user, date, and time) is captured in real-time along with warnings of abnormal or missed
readings. Multi-media (audio, graphics, pictures, and so on) storage capabilities allow a range of data types to
be captured in the field and transferred to the desktop. At any time, data on the mobile computer can be
synchronized to the plant status database.

downloaded, the mobile device is used to collect and analyze rounds data. Multiple tours can be downloaded
to one or more mobile devices.
