| PAS Support team helps customers during hurricaneWhen Hurricane Ike and Gustav hit
the Gulf Coast of Texas and Louisiana, US-based chemical companies needed support, and Siemens was right there to help.  Once the storms passed,
the Siemens PAS Technical Support Center processed support calls for these companies during their plant shutdown,
recovery, and startup processes.   Everything from dispatching
the incoming calls to exediting emergency shipment of parts, was carefully planned to minimize the effort for our customers in
an already stressful situation. |  |
