Automation Audits & Upgrade Planning

Understand where your control system stands today and what needs attention next.

Many facilities know they have automation risk, but they do not always have a clear picture of where it is, how serious it is, or what should be done first. Exact Automation provides practical audits and assessment work to help clients identify support gaps, backup issues, hardware lifecycle concerns, recovery weaknesses, and upgrade priorities.

.

Who this service is for:

This service is well suited for facilities with aging PLC, HMI, or SCADA systems, limited documentation, unclear spare parts risk, unknown backup status, or no defined roadmap for modernization. It is especially useful when management or engineering needs a clearer basis for budgeting and decision-making.

What we help with:

We review the current state of the system, identify the risks that matter most, and outline practical next steps. That may include hardware lifecycle review, backup and recovery checks, migration planning, supportability review, and budget-class recommendations for future work. The goal is clarity, not complexity.

Why an audit adds value

A good audit helps the client move from uncertainty to a clearer plan. It helps reduce surprise failures, supports better capital planning, and gives operations and engineering a more realistic view of what needs attention now versus later. Instead of reacting to problems one at a time, the facility gains a more strategic path forward.

Depending on the project, this service may include:

  • Site review, findings report, hardware and lifecycle assessment, backup review, recovery planning, migration strategy, and practical recommendations for modernization or ongoing support.

If you need a clearer picture of your automation risk and a more practical roadmap forward, we can help.

You’re running wells on aging equipment and crossed fingers.

We take the uncertainty out of the equation.
