When designing HMI/SCADA, consider many factors
User abilities, skill levels, future plans, needs of stakeholders, and other items should be explored. See a system integrator’s advice and seven SCADA system integration/design questions to ask.
Keep process control systems connected with industrial network strategies
Traditional distributed control system (DCS) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems designs can be improved with industrial digital transformation. Seek industrial interoperability, modularity, conformity to standards, including security standards, scalability and portability.

Developing a SCADA master plan framework
The best application of the supervisory control and data acquisition system’s components ensure the continuity of a water and wastewater plant’s operational success
Moving toward automation interoperability
More than 30 organizations were involved in the next version of the Open Process Automation Standard (O-PAS). A secure, standard and interoperable process control system architecture is the goal.
Four SCADA considerations for manufacturers
Considerations for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and human-machine interface (HMI) systems include situational awareness, an emphasis on cloud and mobile delivery and more.
Minimizing SCADA system security gaps
While human-machine interface/supervisory control and data acquisition (HMI/SCADA) systems offer some protection by design, it is not enough.
SCADA helps bridge the IT/OT gap
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) has become the enabler for efficient plant operation and effective management decisions for operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) departments.
