In a large healthcare facility, more than 70,000 alarms can trigger each month across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire, and life-safety systems. Most are routine. Some are not.

Critical events are easily buried among thousands of alerts, and delayed response can carry significant operational and financial consequences.

In one of the nation’s top integrated academic health systems, a single unresolved alarm ultimately contributed to a cascading mechanical failure that flooded 12 operating rooms. The financial impact exceeded $35 million in damages and lost revenue.

The event was not caused by negligence. The team had no reliable way to determine which alarms required immediate action.

This is the $35 Million Problem.
