Founded in 1992, Whitehouse Consulting is an independent consulting organisation specialising in the application of basic and advanced process control technology. It has no connection with any system vendor or installer. Further it does not itself provide such technology. Its consultants each have about 35 years of relevant experience, working on behalf of a large number of companies in the process industries. Whitehouse offers a blend of technical, commercial and organisational advice. Recommendations are based on a sound understanding of the business, the available technology and the organisational change necessary to fully exploit the profit improvement potential. As part of its consulting activities Whitehouse offers a range of training courses and software, specifically in the area of advanced process control. A number of process control design support tools have evolved from Whitehouse's consulting assignments and are now made available to clients.
