A Key InnoTech Service: The OT Health Assessment

The OT Health Assessment (OTHA) is a cornerstone of our OT lifecycle planning services. It provides a roadmap to ensure effective lifecycle management by evaluating a client’s assets, identifying gaps, and recommending improvements. The following outlines the Multi-Phase Approach to an OT Health Assessment (OTHA):

 

Phase 1 – OT Health Assessment (OTHA)

Stakeholder Interviews: Engage personnel in maintenance, operations, and reliability to understand organizational priorities, risks, and alignment on automation strategies.

Documentation Review: Evaluate existing automation standards, procedures, cybersecurity measures, and architecture. This identifies gaps without updating documents.

Facility Assessment: Use a comprehensive checklist to assess the state of Industrial Control Systems (ICS), OT systems, and OT infrastructure.

Network Architecture: Develop network diagrams to highlight potential vulnerabilities.

OTHA Report & Scorecard: Deliver findings in a detailed report, including a hazard/risk explanation and a performance scorecard.

 

Phase 2 – Risk Assessment & Roadmap Development

Conduct a thorough risk assessment of gaps and threats identified in Phase 1.

Facilitate meetings with stakeholders to prioritize risks and mitigation measures for detailed definition in Phase 3.

 

Phase 3 – Program Development & Implementation

Develop a Design Basis Memorandum (DBM) and cost estimates for addressing high-priority risks.

 

Phase 4 – Continuous Improvement

Perform annual validation exercises with client leadership to maintain automation system health and prevent medium to high-risk events.
