Process Mapping & Line Design

Our experienced process engineers specialise in process mapping, production line design, and detailed Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID) development.They analyse your workflows and operational needs to create precise process maps that identify bottlenecks, risks, and opportunities for automation and efficiency improvements.

Alongside process and line design, our engineers develop accurate P&IDs that clearly illustrate the interconnection of process equipment, piping, instrumentation, and control systems. These diagrams form a critical foundation for system control schemes, safety reviews, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance, ensuring all process elements operate safely and efficiently.

Leveraging advanced simulation tools, our process engineers validate layouts and workflows virtually to minimise on-site commissioning time and costly modifications. From concept through detailed engineering, they deliver optimised, scalable production lines and control documentation tailored to your unique process industry needs.

Process Industry

PLC & SCADA Programming

Our expert engineers develop robust PLC programs tailored to your specific process requirements, ensuring precise control and automation of machinery and production lines across industries like distilling, brewing, oil and gas, and precious metal refining. PLC programming forms the backbone of seamless process control, managing sensors, actuators, and equipment coordination to maximise efficiency, reliability, and safety.

We also design and implement safety systems compliant with the highest industry standards, incorporating emergency shutdowns, interlocks, and fail-safe operations to protect personnel, equipment, and the environment.

Our SCADA programming provides comprehensive real-time monitoring and control interfaces, delivering critical process data visualization, alarm management, and remote access capabilities. These integrated solutions enable you to optimise performance, quickly respond to process variations, and maintain consistent product quality.

On Site Commissioning

We work closely with your production, maintenance, and safety teams to perform thorough verification of all field wiring, sensors, actuators, and I/O points. Our commissioning process includes detailed functional testing and validation of PLC, safety systems, and SCADA operations under actual process conditions to confirm all interlocks, alarms, and sequences function as intended.

Using a staged approach involving dry runs and wet commissioning, we systematically test and troubleshoot each subsystem. This methodical process helps identify and resolve any issues early, reducing the risk of costly downtime and unexpected failures. Our team ensures equipment parameters are calibrated correctly and control logic is optimized for real-world performance.

Throughout commissioning, we provide clear documentation, status reporting, and handover support to your operators and engineers.
