🔔 Alerts That Drive Action, Not Noise
Alerts should create clarity, not panic. A good alerting system has defined ownership, rational priorities, and feedback loops so noise gets reduced over time.
✅ What Good Looks Like
Each alert has an owner, a response, and an escalation path
Priority reflects safety/production impact, not emotion
Operators can acknowledge with context
Supervisors get summaries — not a flood of texts
Repeat alerts are reviewed and improved
📋 Quick Start Checklist
Start with top downtime drivers or safety-critical alarms
Create 3–4 priority levels with clear definitions
Route alerts by area/machine — avoid everyone gets everything
Tie important alerts to work creation (CMMS/passdown)
