Automation system integrators are contract
engineering firms that can design and implement automated production
facilities for end-users lacking resources to do the job themselves.
System integrators bring specialized engineering skills to automation
projects and can supplement the end-user’s often understaffed
engineering department.
It is the integrator’s job to keep up with
the latest technology trends and provide the best solutions for the
end-user’s automation problems.
Some integrators specialize in just the
design phases of a project; others provide implementation and start-up
services as well. 'Turnkey' system integrators can handle the whole
project from start to finish.
