1. A computer-implemented method for optimizing multi-unit pumping operations at a well site, the computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving sensor data from hydraulic fracturing fleet equipment at an equipment system;
designating an event as being flagged based on the sensor data from the hydraulic fracturing fleet equipment, wherein the designation of the event as being flagged includes a rotation per minute of a pump, a volume of fluid in the pump, a temperature in the pump, a pressure in the pump, or a combination thereof;
determining a physical action based on the flagged event and a priority list of actions; and
providing instructions to a first pump of the hydraulic fracturing fleet equipment to perform the physical action based on the flagged event and the priority list of actions.
