PLC & SCADA Software Engineers

Siemens and Allen-Bradley control software for new systems, upgrades and working plants. From PLC programming and SCADA development to simulation, commissioning and ongoing support.

Experienced engineers. Working systems.

30+ years of industry experience   •   Over a decade in business   •   10 AD plants / 10 MWe supported

Control software, from design to commissioning

SCADA & HMI Development

Clear operator interfaces, alarms, trends and plant data. We develop and maintain SCADA and HMI software with a focus on practical day-to-day operation.

PLC Programming

Siemens and Allen-Bradley software for new equipment and existing plants. Structured control logic, fault handling and commissioning support from engineers who understand the process.

Remote Support & Access

Secure remote access to help diagnose faults, support operators and make controlled software changes. Practical ongoing support from engineers familiar with your system.

Upgrade, test and commission with confidence

Control System Upgrades

Modernise existing PLC and SCADA software, replace legacy code and plan migrations around the needs of your plant.

FAT & Simulation

Test sequences, interlocks and fault scenarios before site commissioning. Simulation helps identify software issues earlier and supports factory acceptance testing.

Commissioning & Ongoing Support

Bring the software into operation with practical commissioning support, then keep access to engineers who know the system.

Proven in renewable energy

We develop and maintain PLC and SCADA software for 10 anaerobic digestion plants generating a combined 10 MWe.

Our work has included replacing legacy control software to give operators greater flexibility and stakeholders clearer insight into plant performance.

A small team. Continuity throughout your project.

With over a decade in business and more than 30 years of industry experience across our team, we combine specialist control software knowledge with a personal approach.

Work directly with the engineers developing your system, with continuity from the first discussion through commissioning and ongoing support.

S7-1200 G2 Migration & Cybersecurity

Upgrade your existing S7-1200 or suitable legacy control system to the Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 platform. We assess hardware, I/O, communications and software compatibility, then plan the migration, adapt the control logic and test the system before commissioning.

Stronger cybersecurity at the controller. G2 provides user and role management, protection for confidential configuration data, integrity checks and secure engineering and HMI communications. Correctly configured, these features help restrict unauthorised changes and protect your control software and plant operation.

Support for UK cybersecurity obligations. For organisations subject to the UK Network and Information Systems (NIS) Regulations, a migration can support the technical measures needed to manage cyber risk. We consider controller security alongside network segmentation, controlled remote access and firmware maintenance. Compliance depends on the complete system and how it is operated, rather than the PLC alone.
