Safety & Compliance

JMP Brokers Communication between the Factory and the Enterprise

An automotive parts manufacturer needed a highly accurate and cost-effective plant level to enterprise level integration solution. Greater data integrity and accuracy is achieved with the elimination of manual integration procedures required by less advanced integration methodologies.

Simulation Sets the Stage for Success

With an ever-increasing demand for new and innovative products, a local manufacturer of world class water disinfection systems was faced with the challenges of ensuring quality and functionality throughout their product lifecycles. Specifically, how could they concurrently test their system's continually evolving controls strategy from R&D through production without relying on the availability of physical systems?

Finding Solutions for Our Clients' Customers

A large environmental consultancy and software firm needed support with the integration of their software in the production facility of a major Canadian brewery. Montage is a software application that collects, stores, and analyzes enterprise energy data. The data comes from real time product control systems, as well as other data storages. For the client, this data is stored in their facility's PLCs, but due to its design, the Montage software cannot get the data from these controllers. In addition, the client also required that the real time information should be stored for the time period that covers the application maintenance. JMP was contracted to overcome these challenges by providing the system controls to integrate the software into the client's facility and extract the appropriate data in the manner required.

Capturing Information at the Boiling Point

The boiler room used an existing Allen Bradley PLC5 in conjunction with a pair of RSView nodes to establish control of the system. System monitoring and system release data was reported directly to two printers in the boiler room via the two RSView nodes which interfaced to the PLC system. The client wanted to electronically log and retain reporting information related to both the System Monitoring and System Release reports as well as capture trending information for the boiler room quality control tags.
