Industrial IT
Network
Get maximum network speed and production uptime with operational and enterprise level network solutions.
SAGE combines traditional IT skills with expertise in the requirements of control systems and meets the international standards in the integration of enterprise and control systems (ISA95 – International Standard for the integration of enterprise and control systems). This means we balance the safety and functionality of your industrial control systems and your enterprise systems to provide:
end to end design of your industrial network
increased security awareness and assistance in understanding current security issues
optimum control of your industrial control solution
access to useful real-time and historical data
bandwidth management
reliability delivered simply
Telemetry
Centralise and control your wide area data for accurate, real time communication, access and monitoring.
SAGE has a formidable experience in project work across the gas, water and infrastructure industry sectors. This continually boosts its already significant capability to develop solutions that greatly enhance control of your wide area assets including:
Wide area network design and usage monitoring
View-and-control-from-anywhere systems
Fault tolerant WAN systems (DNP3 and report by exception systems)
Private and public WAN systems (Digital radio, NextG, WIMAX,4G, Copper and fibre)
Rapid deployment of remote systems
Upgrade to current technologies
Historical usage logging for planning and long term design
Completed in 2008, the APA project monitored gas usage over more than 10,000km of pipeline across four States in Australia, allowing secure control of gas entering the network and hot redundancy for greater disaster recovery capabilities.
A newly formed government body, State Water, needed to gain control of major infrastructure assets across NSW that were previously managed from local authorities. The State Water iSMART SCADA system, designed and implemented by SAGE, provided this functionality. The project gave State Water secure direct visibility from anywhere of its more than 80 dams, weirs and regulators.
Manufacturing Execution System
Improve your production visibility and agility using a SAGE designed Manufacturing Execution System (MES) solution.
SAGE has a proven track record in the design, implementation and support of complex solutions that connect your business functions to your manufacturing processes.
Manufacturers who have implemented MES systems in their enterprises are better positioned to customise products, provide rapid response and improve operational performance, thus achieving manufacturing agility.
Seen as a bridge between the plant floor and the enterprise, a collaborative manufacturing system such as the SAGE MES solution has become the principle means of delivering robust automated solutions to the manufacturing sector based on international standard ISA-95. (Our MES solutions encompass the functionalities of Manufacturing Operations Management (MOM) as defined by the ISA-95 part 3 recommendation)
SAGE Automation is a leading participant in the international Manufacturing Enterprise Solutions Association (MESA), ensuring we are abreast of new technology, standards, applications and best practices.
Our specialist MES team works with the world's leading brands and is passionate about translating our customers’ needs into solutions which make tangible differences to their businesses.
A SAGE MES solution will help your operation to:
Gain manufacturing visibility
Achieve manufacturing agility
Reduce waste and utility usage
Produce more with less
Comply with the track and trace of ingredients, parts and components
Effect culture change
Integrate decision support tools such as work order execution
Historian
Stop using your historian as a simple high volume database and start performing meaningful analytics.
Historian allows users to diagnose complex and intricate process-related problems efficiently and easily by the appropriate presentation of the process data. (Historian typically stores the same tag data as a SCADA trend, but at a greater resolution)
Let SAGE’s highly trained engineers develop the ideal Historian solution for you.
Our Historian solutions allow you to:
Drive operational change through visibility of relevant data
Achieve fast and accurate problem resolution through display of meaningful data
Measure deviation from ideal production values
See meaningful alerts to identify drifting production and bring it back on track
Present data at all levels
