Small on purpose.
The person who scopes your project writes the code, stands at the panel during startup, and answers the phone in six months when something changes. There is no account management layer between you and the work, because there is nobody to put there.
What we do
Wasatch Automation is an industrial controls and automation firm based in Centerville, Utah. We design, program and commission control systems; we build energy and power monitoring platforms; and we support industrial equipment that other people have given up on.
Our work spans PLC programming on Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Opto 22 and Wago, SCADA and HMI development in Ignition, VFD configuration, industrial networking and the metering integration behind energy dashboards.
How we got here
Most of what we do came from being asked. A power monitoring practice grew out of customers wanting to know where electricity was going. Support for imported machinery grew out of plants that had bought equipment overseas and had nobody to call. Neither was a business plan; both turned out to be things people badly needed.
What we are not
We are not a national integrator with regional offices, and we do not try to be. We are not the right choice for a project that needs thirty engineers on site simultaneously. We are a good choice when you want the person doing the work to understand the whole system and to still be reachable next year.
Where we are
Centerville, Utah, ten minutes north of Salt Lake City. On site work along the Wasatch Front is typically next day. Remote work happens anywhere in the country.
How we charge
Fixed price scopes where the work can be defined, hourly where it genuinely cannot. No long term contracts, no retainers and no minimum commitments.
What you own
Source code, drawings, tag databases, backups and documentation, all unlocked, all yours, with no restriction on who works on it next.
