Follow each project from offer to commissioning, sign-off and retention.
An automation company sells offers, builds panels, and spends weeks commissioning at a customer’s plant, with retention money held long after the job. The project side is built for you during implementation. It follows each project from priced offer to final sign-off, holds panel material against it and logs service visits against warranty or a maintenance contract. The IoT monitoring dashboard covers machine readings.
Automation projects rarely end when the panel ships. Commissioning, punch points, operator training and retention held until final acceptance all follow, often without a purchase order of their own.
Project and service tracking is what integrators and panel builders ask for, since the offer stage is usually fine and the stages after it are not. Share your requirements first.
A plant sends an enquiry for a machine upgrade, a SCADA supervisory system or a new motor control panel. An engineer counts every signal into an I/O list, then prices the PLCs, VFDs, HMIs, sensors and cabling that list demands. Every revision to that list moves the quoted figure. After the purchase order, parts are ordered from distributors, some with long lead times, and the panel is wired in your workshop.
The customer attends the factory acceptance test (FAT) in your workshop. Dispatch goes out with its transport document, and an engineer then spends days at the plant commissioning and sitting through the site acceptance test (SAT). Payments come against milestones, a share is held until final sign-off, and breakdown calls then arrive on an engineer’s personal phone.

Read the case studyQuestions industrial automation companies ask before they call.
Does it work alongside our bookkeeping tool?
Yes, it runs beside your accounting software without a built-in link. We can add an export of purchases, milestone invoices and transport document details during configuration, priced as its own item. Accounts stay in your ledger software.
Can you also build SCADA dashboards?
Yes. The IoT monitoring dashboard reads PLCs, drives and meters and raises alerts, once your machine data is reachable. It is quoted separately from the project side.
Should we buy a standard ERP instead?
If you build repeat panels to the same design, a standard ERP may be enough. Integrators who commission on site usually find punch lists and retention missing from it.
Can it track imported parts?
Yes, in the project side we build. Each part on order shows its promised date against the project waiting for it, and a late item flags the FAT date at risk. Freight and duty can be added to the part’s cost.
Which parts of a panel and controls shop move the quotation?
Engineers quoting, the number of projects live at once, and the drawing and revision flow all weigh in. Imported part tracking and billing links add more. Each module is costed once the BOM builder has run on a past enquiry.
What should an automation firm prepare to begin?
Bring an I/O list, a quotation with its BOM, a FAT checklist, a milestone billing schedule, a service call record and a program backup folder. Name a project lead and a service engineer for checks. Real paperwork helps industrial automation companies most.
Who keeps project files and program backups if the panel shop moves on?
Offers, material control, checklists, billing and the program archive stay with the panel shop, with an open-format export on request. The panel shop holds title to the source, and the builders carry on repairing it. Industrial automation companies data stays with them.
What happens after I share my requirements?
An engineer reads what you send and replies within one business day. We then look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough. You get a short written summary ordered by priority, with no obligation to hire us afterwards.
How much will the software cost?
We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. That first review settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
