The Problem

What the plant was facing

Process engineers needed high-resolution historical data for troubleshooting, but existing HMIs only kept a few days of trends locally. Getting a specific timestamp's process values meant coordinating a plant visit.

Our Solution

What we engineered

  • Configured PLC-to-SQL logging with millisecond timestamps for critical tags
  • Optimised schema with partitioned tables for multi-year retention
  • REST endpoints for downstream analytics and reporting tools
  • Automatic archival and health checks on the logging pipeline
