Services
We work across the full lifecycle of industrial data — from connecting source systems through to building the platforms and interfaces that make that data useful.
Data Integration
We connect the systems that run your operations — from shopfloor PLCs and SCADA networks to enterprise ERP and cloud platforms — into a coherent, reliable data architecture.
- OPC UA and OPC DA gateway design and deployment
- MQTT broker architecture for IIoT and edge devices
- Kafka-based streaming pipelines for high-throughput process data
- REST and custom API integrations with MES, LIMS, and ERP systems
- Edge computing and data pre-processing at source
- Protocol translation and legacy system bridging
Unified, real-time access to operational data across previously siloed systems — enabling faster decisions, better reporting, and a solid foundation for analytics.
Data Historians
Historian platforms are the backbone of operational data storage. We design, deploy, optimise, and migrate historian infrastructure so it performs reliably at scale.
- AVEVA PI System (PI Data Archive, PI AF, PI Vision) — deployment, configuration, and performance tuning
- Canary Labs historian setup and optimisation
- InfluxDB and TimescaleDB for modern time-series workloads
- Historian-to-historian migrations with data integrity validation
- Archive strategy and retention policy design
- High-availability and disaster recovery configuration
A historian platform that stores data efficiently, retrieves it quickly, and scales with your operations — without the performance degradation that plagues under-maintained systems.
Visualisation & Analytics
Data is only useful when people can see it and act on it. We build dashboards, operator displays, and analytics tools that connect process data to day-to-day decisions.
- PI Vision and custom web-based operator displays
- KPI frameworks aligned with OEE, energy, quality, and production targets
- Self-serve analytics environments for process engineers
- Shift handover and operational reporting dashboards
- Alarm analysis and event correlation views
- Integration with business intelligence tools (Power BI, Grafana)
Displays and reports that operators, engineers, and managers actually use — because they show the right data, at the right level of detail, for the decision at hand.
Advisory
Before committing to a platform or architecture, it pays to get an independent view. We provide honest, technical guidance grounded in real-world delivery experience.
- Data architecture reviews and gap analysis
- Operational data strategy and roadmap development
- Vendor and platform evaluation (build vs. buy analysis)
- System health assessments for existing historian and integration infrastructure
- Technical due diligence for acquisitions or digital transformation programmes
- Standards alignment (ISA-95, ISA-88, OPC UA companion specifications)
Clear, actionable recommendations that help you invest in the right technology and avoid architectures that look good on paper but fail in practice.
