OUR SERVICES

Complex processes.
Clear direction.

Practical engineering from the first performance assessment to implementation in your plant.

CONTROL / MODELLING / OPTIMISATION

FOUR DISCIPLINES / ONE INTEGRATED APPROACH

The four petals of our X represent
the core pillars of our consulting.

01

Control performance assessment

Find the gap between current operation and what your control system can deliver.

Review loop behaviour, plant data and operating constraints to identify where control performance is limiting production. Prioritise the improvements that matter to your operation.

Discuss your operation
02

Advanced process control

Make complex processes more stable, responsive and productive.

Develop control strategies and process models around the way your plant actually behaves. Bring simulation, data modelling and practical implementation together.

Discuss your operation
03

Real-time optimisation

Turn process understanding into better operating decisions.

Use model-based optimisation to anticipate process response and work within operating constraints. Align control objectives with throughput, recovery and product quality.

Discuss your operation
04

Process control strategy

Give your automation investment a clear direction.

Connect business priorities with a practical process control roadmap. Define where to focus, how to implement and how to evaluate the value delivered.

Discuss your operation

FROM CONCEPT TO OPERATION

A disciplined path
to better performance.

01

Design

Define the objectives and develop the control approach.

02

Simulate

Test process response and control behaviour before implementation.

03

Implement

Integrate and commission within the plant control environment.

04

Evaluate

Assess performance against the operating and business objectives.
