The success of an automation project depends essentially on the execution of the systems integration.

The key factors in a successful systems integration project are:

• A clear identification and understanding of the process and automation objectives.
• Development of a work plan with an itemized list of all deliverables.
• Attention to coordination details with focus on interfacing to the automation controllers.
• A programming team who understands the process dynamics and front line operator decision-making processes.
• An instrumentation technical team who has extensive training in sensor technology and principles.
• Quality assured control panels that have passed detailed factory acceptance testing (F.A.T.) before shipping to site.

As a leading systems integrator, Summa Engineering has consistently delivered solutions that incorporate inherent standardization strategy and best practices features.

A close consultative process with the client has allowed us to resolve problematic issues that may not be resolved by a rote technical approach.

Whenever possible we endeavour to supply to our customers only off-the-shelf products. It is not Summa's policy to box-in the customer with proprietary components.
