Technical Services
Professional PLC programming, documentation, and consulting services for industrial automation projects
Whether you’re inheriting undocumented systems, planning a major refactor, or need expert guidance on automation architecture, I provide specialized technical services that leverage real-world industrial automation experience.
I work day to day with SCADA systems, PLC programming, and industrial control systems, so the services here come from practical engineering experience rather than theory. That includes hands-on work with wastewater treatment plants, conveyor systems, and more complex industrial processes.
PLC Automation Project Consulting
Expert guidance on your PLC automation project. Whether you’re planning a new system, selecting platforms, or need advice on implementation approach, I’ll help you make informed decisions.
- Platform selection guidance (Siemens TIA Portal, Allen Bradley, Codesys, etc.)
- Hardware and software specifications for your specific application
- Budget estimation and equipment sourcing recommendations
- Best practices from real industrial implementations
Remote Support & Guidance
Experienced automation support available on demand for your maintenance team. Remote diagnostic guidance, structured troubleshooting, and expert advice whenever your team encounters a PLC or control system issue.
- Live fault diagnostics via phone or video call
- Guided troubleshooting and root cause analysis
- PLC and IO diagnostic interpretation
- Modification review before deployment
PLC Project Documentation & Analysis
Transform undocumented or poorly documented PLC code into comprehensive technical documentation that your team can actually use.
- Complete program walkthrough with every object documented
- Critical analysis identifying pitfalls and improvement areas
- I/O documentation, configuration overview, and flow diagrams
- Support for TIA Portal and CODESYS platforms
PLC Architecture & Design Consulting
Expert consulting for developing modular, structured, and reusable PLC code using Asset Oriented Programming principles.
- Asset Oriented and structured design patterns
- Standard approach with input/output abstraction layers
- Library-managed function blocks and UDTs
- Alarm management and simulation layer design
CPD Training for Automation Teams
Tailored training programs for your team delivered remotely or on-site, covering practical PLC programming skills and automation best practices.
- Fault finding and systematic troubleshooting
- Structured programming and Asset Oriented design
- Version control and library management
- Safe modification practices and testing strategies
Why Work With Me?
Real-World Experience
I work daily with industrial automation, developing and maintaining systems for wastewater treatment, manufacturing, and process control. Every service reflects practical, tested approaches from real production environments.
Engineering Background
I understand PLC code because I write it professionally. I know why certain design decisions are made, where edge cases hide, and what makes code maintainable in production environments.
Teaching Mindset
I create Asset Oriented Programming training content and educational materials, so I’m constantly thinking about how to make complex automation concepts clear and understandable.
Multiple Platform Experience
Experienced with Siemens (TIA Portal, SIMATIC Manager), CODESYS, Allen Bradley, Schneider, Mitsubishi, and more. Structured design principles apply across platforms.
