Automation & Digital Transformation

A standard Proctek SCADA implementation takes 4 to 9 months depending on scope, tag count, integration with existing DCS/PLC and FAT/SAT testing. Small projects (<2,000 tags) can be completed in 3-4 months; brownfield installations with legacy system migration typically require 8-12 months.

Proctek works as a multi-brand integrator with the main platforms: Rockwell (FactoryTalk, ControlLogix), Siemens (PCS 7, SIMATIC), Emerson (DeltaV, Ovation), Schneider (EcoStruxure), Yokogawa (CENTUM VP), Honeywell (Experion) and open platforms like Ignition. The choice depends on existing architecture and client requirements.

Yes. Multi-brand integration is a core Proctek practice. We have proven experience migrating control loops between platforms, maintaining operational continuity through staged cutover and FAT (Factory Acceptance Testing) and SAT (Site Acceptance Testing) validation under IEC 62381.

Proctek designs under ISA-95 (hierarchical architecture), ISA-18.2 (rational alarm management), IEC 61511 and IEC 61508 (functional safety for SIS) and NAMUR for the process industry. All projects follow a documented lifecycle with ISO 9001:2015.

APC encompasses strategies beyond standard PID — including Model Predictive Control (MPC), multivariable control and real-time optimization. It is justified when there are multiple operating constraints, quality variability or energy savings potential >5%. It typically pays back in 6-18 months in refineries and petrochemicals.

A Digital Twin is a virtual replica synchronized in real time with the physical asset, using SCADA/historian data, physics models (CFD, FEA) and machine learning. It enables operational scenario simulation, predictive maintenance, process optimization and operator training without interrupting real operations.
