SCADA + Communications
SCADA that Works for the User, Not Just the Specifications.
The Challenge SCADA means different things to different stakeholders. Control center operators need intuitive screens for rapid intervention. O&M teams rely on actionable and prioritized alarms. Performance engineers demand data granularity and flexible reporting, while 3rd-party offtakers require strict protocol compatibility.
Too often, established integrators treat these distinct needs as a zero-sum game. They deliver exceptional performance in one area while treating the rest as contractual box-checking.
The Ascent Approach We believe SCADA should be a unified tool, not a compromise. Our development process is platform-agnostic and "white-glove," anticipating and filling the gaps that legacy vendors ignore.
Our Process
Stakeholder alignment: We review Owner and EPC specifications, then interview the actual future users—from the control room to field—to gather operational needs.
User-Centric Design: We create HMI renderings and feature lists before coding, ensuring operators can find what they need without drowning in a sea of 100,000 tags.
Testing: Factory Acceptance Tests and Site Acceptance Tests aren’t just milestones. They are critical processes to ensure quality.
Commissioning: We don’t shy away from our role in project startup. SCADA is where all things come together. Ascent adapts to client needs, from patching fiber to supporting vendor conflicts.
Training: A tool is only as useful as the hands that wield it. Our curriculum covers core features and leaves plenty of time for user questions and tutorials.
Operational Confidence: Whether managing routine reporting or mitigating a major wind event, your team gets immediate feedback and total system visibility.
