Modernise your control systems. Maximise uptime.
Control systems run your production lines — PLCs, SCADA, HMI panels, and DCS networks. We help manufacturers upgrade and standardise their PLC, SCADA, and HMI systems — reducing unplanned downtime, improving product quality, and strengthening OT cybersecurity.
The Automation Challenge
Many manufacturers rely on ageing control systems that are difficult to maintain, hard to recruit for, and increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats — while production demands grow.
Legacy OT Systems
Of UK manufacturers still operate critical processes on legacy OT systems over 15 years old — Make UK Reports
OT Cyber Cost to UK
Cybersecurity lapses in operational technology environments have cost UK firms £44 billion over the past five years — ABC Money
Control Skills Gap
Of UK manufacturers report difficulty recruiting PLC and SCADA engineers, with average vacancies open 6+ months — IET Skills Survey 2025
What We Deliver
We modernise and standardise your automation infrastructure — from individual PLCs to enterprise-wide SCADA and control networks.
PLC Implementation
Upgrade legacy PLCs to modern, maintainable platforms with standardised code libraries and documentation.
-
Legacy PLC migration and upgrade paths
-
Standardised control code libraries (ISA-88/ISA-95)
-
Reduced dependency on specialist contractors
SCADA & HMI Upgrades
Replace outdated SCADA and HMI systems with modern, web-based platforms that improve operator experience and data access.
-
Modern HTML5 HMI design and deployment
-
Centralised SCADA for multi-site visibility
-
Alarm rationalisation and management
Secure Remote Access
Secure your operational technology infrastructure against emerging threats while enabling safe remote monitoring and support.
-
OT network segmentation and hardening
-
Secure remote access for monitoring and support
-
IEC 62443 compliance assessment and implementation
How We Work
A structured methodology to connect your systems without disrupting operations.
Automation Mapping
Survey your existing control systems and network architecture. Identify risks, obsolescence, and priority upgrades.
Design & Specification
Create detailed functional specifications, hardware schedules, and migration plans aligned to production windows.
Commission
Implement upgrades in phased shutdowns with full FAT/SAT testing, operator training, and handover documentation.
Validate & Support
Establish ongoing monitoring, preventive maintenance schedules, and continuous improvement programmes.
