SCADA & HMI

SCADA and HMI design, build and migration across Ignition, AVEVA Plant SCADA, FactoryTalk View, WinCC and Cimplicity — built around the way your operators actually run the plant.

Vendor-Neutral SCADA & HMI Across Western Australia

Your SCADA is the window through which operators run the plant. If it does not match the way they think about the process, they will work around it — and the data the rest of the business depends on becomes unreliable. ElcoTech designs, builds and supports SCADA and HMI systems with that operator-first lens, regardless of which platform fits the site best.

As a Gold Certified Integrator for Ignition by Inductive Automation we bring deep specialist capability where Ignition is the right call — and we work across AVEVA Plant SCADA, Rockwell FactoryTalk View, Siemens WinCC and GE Cimplicity for sites where another platform is the better fit.

Platforms We Work With

Deep working knowledge across the SCADA and HMI environments used in Australian industry — and honest advice about which one suits your site.

Ignition (Inductive Automation)

Gold Certified Integrator. Perspective and Vision projects, MES and OEE modules, Sepasoft, Cirrus Link MQTT and unlimited-licence Ignition Edge.

AVEVA Plant SCADA (Citect)

Plant SCADA / Citect, AVEVA System Platform (Wonderware), Historian and Operations Management Interface for large industrial deployments.

Rockwell FactoryTalk View

FactoryTalk View SE and ME, FactoryTalk Historian SE, alarms and events, VantagePoint dashboards and PanelView terminal projects.

Siemens WinCC

WinCC Professional, WinCC OA and Comfort / Advanced / Unified Panels — integrated cleanly into S7-1500, S7-1200 and PCS 7 environments.

GE Cimplicity & iFIX

GE Digital Cimplicity and iFIX HMI/SCADA, Proficy Historian and migration paths off legacy GE platforms onto modern web-based front ends.

OEM HMIs

Schneider Magelis, Siemens KTP, Rockwell PanelView, Mitsubishi GOT and other panel-mount HMIs supported as part of broader control system work.

What We Deliver

SCADA work goes well beyond drawing screens. Our scope covers server architecture, gateway redundancy, tag and device design, screen development, alarm rationalisation, historian, reporting, security and commissioning — favouring high-performance HMI principles over chrome-heavy templates. Operators see the information they need in the shape they need it, alarms mean something, and trends are part of normal operation rather than an afterthought.

Our engineers bring direct experience from major mining, water, power and process SCADA projects across Western Australia — Ignition, AVEVA Plant SCADA, FactoryTalk View and WinCC deployments on iron ore handling, lithium plants, water treatment, substations and heavy industrial sites. That track record shapes how we structure tag trees, design alarms and write operator screens: for the people who have to live with the system at 2 a.m., not just the people who built it.

Every project ships with documented as-built drawings, a backup and restore plan, and a clear handover so your team can extend the system long after we have left site.

SCADA Server Architecture

Gateway design, redundancy, store-and-forward history, security model and edge / front-end split sized to your site.

Operator Screens & HMIs

Perspective, FactoryTalk, WinCC and Cimplicity screens built to high-performance HMI principles — one project, every device.

MES & OEE

Production tracking, downtime categorisation, batch records and OEE dashboards using Ignition's MES suite or AVEVA equivalents.

Alarm Rationalisation

ISA-18.2 aligned alarm review, shelving, escalation and notification — turning alarm noise into actionable signal.

Historian & Reporting

Tag history, SQL Bridge, scheduled reports and KPI dashboards that surface real operational insight.

SCADA Migrations

End-of-life replacements and platform consolidations — planned and sequenced on our dedicated Obsolescence & Migration page.

Industries We Serve

ElcoTech delivers SCADA and HMI for mining and minerals processing, power and energy, water and wastewater, infrastructure, manufacturing, commercial buildings and agriculture across Perth, the Pilbara, the Wheatbelt and the South West. Each sector has its own conventions — tag naming, alarm philosophy, document deliverables — and we work to yours, not ours.
