Odyssey Controls: Services

In order for a project to be successful, a system must be delivered to a client with a quality that meets or exceeds the expectations of the client and meets the scheduling and financial constraints of the project. During every phase of a project, our project managers work closely with customers, employees and suppliers to ensure that the project is executed efficiently.

Engineering [top]

A well-engineered control system is key for providing our clients with smooth installation and long-term reliability of their control system. Working closely with our clients, we design a system architecture that meets their production and financial requirements. Our engineers verify equipment specifications and system requirements to select the components necessary to meet our clients' process, safety and maintenance needs.

Engineering Documentation [top]

To ensure that our products are supplied to our clients with the highest quality, we focus on creating quality documentation that details every aspect of the application that we design for the client. All of our documentation is subjected to interdepartmental design reviews as well as customer design reviews prior to the development phase of a project. Quality documentation and a sound design is a necessity for our software developers, technicians and electricians to manufacture high quality control systems swiftly and efficiently. We also understand that by providing high quality documentation to our customers we are effectively sharing our knowledge with them, which will help to maintain and operate their process equipment. This documentation will save the initial project time/money, and provide customers with long term ease of maintenance.

Custom SCADA Applications [top]

Clients value quality as much as we do. We understand that process data is important for our clients to ensure the quality of their products. Many of our clients need to be able to view screens of current process information, review archived data, and interact with the process control equipment from a centralized remote location. Our SCADA programmers are familiar with the most current and popular manufacturers. A well-designed SCADA system gives our clients the competitive edge by providing them with the ability to analyze data faster, monitor quality, react to potential problems quicker, and reduce downtime which ultimately results in cost savings and quality production.
