ICS Automated
About

A controls partner that takes ownership from design through long-term support.

Engineered around how plants actually operate — design, panels, PLC, SCADA, instrumentation, OT cybersecurity, startup, and post-install support. Many of our engineers are licensed PEs, and our cyber work is aligned with ISA/IEC 62443.

/ About

Engineered around how plants actually operate.

ICS Automated was built around a practical understanding of industrial control systems and the real-world environments where they operate. We work with customers who need reliable automation, clear operator interfaces, durable control panels, and responsive support.

Our team combines control system design, control panel design, PLC programming, SCADA development, instrumentation integration, OT cybersecurity, and field startup experience. Many of our engineers are licensed Professional Engineers (PEs), and our cybersecurity work follows ISA/IEC 62443 and NIST guidance.

Every project has to work for engineers, contractors, operators, and maintenance personnel — so we focus on systems that are organized, serviceable, and built for long-term operation.

/ Why ICS Automated

A controls partner that takes ownership from design through long-term support.

01

Licensed PE engineers

Many of our engineers are licensed Professional Engineers, leading the controls scope end-to-end.

02

ISA/IEC 62443 aligned

OT cybersecurity built around 62443 zone-and-conduit principles and NIST guidance.

03

Field-aware design

Panels and systems engineered for real installation conditions, not just paper.

04

Maintainable PLC logic

Structured, commented code organized so the next person can read it.

05

Operator-friendly HMI

Screens designed around how operators actually run the plant.

06

Secure remote access

MFA, role-based access, and session logging — no shared passwords.

07

Clear documentation

Schematics, narratives, datasheets, and as-builts that match what's installed.

08

Startup that doesn't disappear

We stay engaged through commissioning and beyond install.

Cyber & Compliance

OT cybersecurity, built around ISA/IEC 62443 and the realities of plant operations.

From greenfield architecture to managed endpoint protection, secure remote login, firewall installation, and multi-carrier IoT connectivity — we deliver a sustainable security program for utilities and industrial sites that don't run their own SOC.

ISA/IEC 62443 Alignment

Risk assessments, zone-and-conduit models, and security level targets translated into practical, sustainable controls.

Secure Architecture Design

OT reference architectures — DMZs, jump hosts, segmentation, monitoring — drawn from 62443 and NIST patterns.

Managed Endpoint Protection

EDR and patch posture for SCADA servers, HMIs, and engineering workstations — monitored and reported.

Secure Remote Login

MFA, role-based access, full session logging, and clean revocation for staff, integrators, and OEM vendors.

Firewall Configuration & Install

OT-grade firewalls specified, installed, and configured — IT/OT separation with documented, reviewable rule sets.

Multi-Carrier IoT SIMs

Managed SIM cards with carrier fail-over, private APNs, and central visibility for RTUs and remote field devices.

/ How We Work

A straightforward, engineering-led process.

Every project follows the same disciplined path — scope it correctly, design it to be maintainable, build it cleanly, and stay engaged through startup.

  1. STEP 01

    Scope the system

    Site walks, existing-condition review, P&ID and I/O analysis, and clear definition of operating modes, alarms, and integration points before any code or wiring is touched.

  2. STEP 02

    Design and document

    Panel layouts, wiring schematics, network architecture, instrument datasheets, and control narratives. The package an electrician, integrator, or operator can actually use.

  3. STEP 03

    Build, program, integrate

    Panel design packages issued, PLC logic written and tested, SCADA/HMI built around operator workflows, instruments integrated, networks segmented and hardened.

  4. STEP 04

    Startup and support

    On-site commissioning, loop checks, tuning, operator walkthrough, and as-built documentation — followed by responsive support for upgrades and troubleshooting.
