What is the e4 Formula for Success?
In any application, there are a variety of technologies for the treatment of water. Each technology approaches treatment of water in different ways. Evaluating these technologies requires balancing complex factors that influence the effectiveness of the system under real world conditions, operational efficiency, economic considerations, and risk exposure.
Effectiveness
Effectiveness is a measure of performance and the reliability of the water treatment system. This included the ability to process the concentration and types of particulates contained in the fluid, the ability to of the system to remove the contaminants and the reliability of the equipment to maintain uninterrupted operation.
Efficiency
Efficiency is a measure of operational consideration: Labor requirements, supervisory requirements and downtime.
Economy
Economy is a measure of direct and indirect costs: space required, labor, consumables, waste disposal and system downtime for repairs or failed inspections.
Exposure
Exposure is a measure of risk of loss: financial, operational, or legal consequences due to system failure.
Taking into account these 4 essential interrelated criteria is the e4 Formula for Success.
