CTE project process: a proven process that allows active exchange within the project team

Quality is no coincidence - from start to success and beyond. From the initial idea to successful commissioning, we accompany you through the entire lifecycle of your project - and remain at your side afterwards.

Our standardized project process and ISO 9001-certified quality system ensure transparency, the highest quality standards and a partnership you can count on. This is how added value is created!

Our way of working is based on the proven V-model, which we adapt flexibly to modern methods such as Agile, SCRUM or CRISP. We follow the principles of what - how - do - test and combine proven structures with innovative approaches to implement your project efficiently and future-proof.

Concept

Analysis

Here we dive into a new project together if you are just starting out - even if you only have an idea. We will show you the possibilities.

ControlTech Engineering starts by recording your requirements, analyzing them with our expertise and defining your project goals together. In doing so, we find out where we can best support you. In return, you receive direct suggestions for possible approaches. We work with you to define strategies and evaluate technology and systems. Our broad expertise in automation, industrial IT and data management also enables us to carry out a comprehensive risk assessment and evaluation. Based on this, we can estimate your project costs. The result is a rough overview with the expected effort, cost estimate and schedule.

Consulting

Our expertise helps in every project phase - not just at the very beginning: the best solution is developed together with you directly on site.

ControlTech Engineering specializes in all areas of automation and IT for industrial production systems. Our professional advice will help you, especially at the very beginning of a project. Our expertise is particularly valuable in the requirements and concept phase. But a fresh view from the outside also helps in a later project phase. Our engineering specialists will also accompany you on site over a longer period of time. We support you in developing the solution - as a team. This results in the best solution for you, one that provides you with long-term added value.

Specification

Engineering (detailed concept)

Hardware planning & software planning

Comprehensive hardware planning for optimum performance and safety: from the control cabinet to the complete system.

ControlTech Engineering's hardware planning covers the entire range of electrotechnical equipment - including high-voltage systems and IT networks. If required, we can procure all the necessary hardware components and provide professional construction management. We are tailored to projects of any size. Be it increased system availability, new builds or expansions, we are familiar with your challenges such as spare parts supply or system certification.

Implementation

Programming, installation and configuration

We support you in your project with programming and configuration according to the specification, even on site.

The experts at ControlTech Engineering program and configure in all areas of automation and IT for industrial production systems. Predefined specifications lay the foundation for software installation, configuration and programming. Our expertise includes leading technologies such as Siemens PCS7, PCSneo, TIA Portal, Emerson's DeltaV, ABB systems and COPA-DATA Zenon. Thanks to strong partnerships with leading automation manufacturers, we offer you first-class support and innovative solutions - even with a team at your site.

Commissioning

Smooth commissioning of your production is our incentive. You can rely on our expertise based on years of experience.

Commissioning is crucial to our joint success: only with precisely configured hardware and software as well as tested interfaces can all components be installed without errors - and seamlessly integrated into your business processes. Through detailed system function tests, we guarantee that every component functions optimally under real conditions. Our process starts with the support of line tests so that you can rely on an efficient and trouble-free system.

Validation

Testing

By carrying out Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), we test your software under real conditions before it is used.

Our Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) help to identify software weaknesses at an early stage, which speeds up the commissioning of your projects. We use simulations to carry out a comprehensive error analysis, which saves time and resources. We support not only the execution but also the careful planning of FATs to ensure that our tests reflect the real conditions under which your software operates. In this way, we guarantee that all requirements are met before the software is deployed.

Qualification

GxP-compliant Qualification: Your path to smooth validation with increased efficiency and minimized risk.

Qualification is an essential step in ensuring product quality and compliance with regulations in regulated industries. It involves systematically checking whether technical equipment is installed correctly and functions efficiently. This process minimizes risks, increases efficiency and is crucial for compliance with GxP guidelines. Our standardized project process enables smooth Qualification. We also support you from design qualification (DQ) through installation qualification (IQ) and operational qualification (OQ) to performance qualification (PQ).

Life Cycle Management

System Maintenance, migration and updates

Migrations, system updates and regular maintenance to ensure the long-term performance and operational reliability of your systems.

Modernizing production processes, integrating future-proof technologies, extending the service life of your production systems - this is exactly what we specialize in during the migration process. We support you from strategic planning through to the implementation of new systems and ensure that upgrades are carried out efficiently and with minimal downtime. ControlTech Engineering understands the importance of advanced and reliable automation systems in today's fast-paced world. With our expertise, we support you from planning to implementation of new systems. An efficient upgrade and error-free data migration ensure the modernization of your automation systems.

On-Call Service (infrastructure monitoring)

Reliable service for your production facilities, systems and network infrastructure around the clock? This is possible with On-Call Service.

ControlTech Engineering On-Call Service guarantees a rapid response around the clock. We understand the importance of continuous operational readiness for your plants and systems. That's why we offer a reliable service that is on hand immediately in the event of faults - with a guaranteed response time. Our team of specialists provides proactive monitoring and rapid problem resolution to minimize downtime of your automation systems and ensure production continuity.

Spare parts service

The Spare Parts Service minimizes downtime and guarantees business continuity. Benefit from fast response times.

ControlTech Engineering's spare parts supply minimizes downtimes and secures business processes. We are available for you during business hours or, if required, outside of business hours. You often receive the hardware to be replaced the very next working day. This is because we store critical spare parts for your system with us so that it only needs to be configured and delivered in the event of a fault. We not only take care of warranty cases and offer uncomplicated solutions. You can also rely on a fair partner outside of the warranty. We ensure secure data erasure when the equipment is disposed of.
