WHAT WE DO
Full-scope PLC & panel services —
nothing subcontracted out.
Every phase of your project happens under one roof. We design the logic, build the panel, and commission the system — so there's one number to call and one team accountable for the result.
PLC Programming
New programs, legacy upgrades, and logic optimization. Allen-Bradley (Studio 5000), Beckoff, and more.
Control Panel Fabrication
UL 508a certified panel builds from concept to factory-tested hardware. Every panel meets spec before it ships.
System Integration
Plant-wide OT architecture connecting PLCs, drives, I/O, and upstream SCADA — designed to last and easy for your team to operate.
Control System Design
P&ID review, I/O lists, wiring schematics, panel layouts, and control sequencing logic — designed before the first wire is pulled.
Commissioning & Startup
Loop tuning, device calibration, customer acceptance testing, and software verification — we don't leave until the system is running right.
Legacy System Upgrades
Aging SLC 500, PLC-5, or older Siemens systems still running your plant? We migrate to modern platforms with minimal production downtime.
PLATFORMS WE WORK WITH
Certified on the systems your plant already runs
Allen-Bradley / Rockwell
Studio 5000 · CompactLogix · ControlLogix
Ignition
Full SCADA, HMI, historian, and reporting suite
Beckhoff / TwinCAT
TwinCAT 3 · EtherCAT · PC-based control for high-speed applications
RECENT PROJECT - CUT-TO-LENGTH LINE UPGRADE
Replaced aging SLC 500 with CompactLogix. Plant never missed a shift.
A precision metals manufacturer was running a critical cut-to-length line on an obsolete SLC 500 with no support path. LCS designed the migration, fabricated a new UL 508a panel, and executed the cutover over a planned maintenance weekend — zero unplanned downtime.

HOW IT WORKS
From first call to system running
Every engagement starts with understanding your process — not selling you a template.
STEP 01
Free Assessment
We review your current setup, identify gaps, and scope the work — no cost, no obligation. We tell you exactly what we'd do and why.
STEP 02
Design & Engineering
P&IDs, I/O lists, wiring schematics, and control logic designed before the first part is ordered. You review and approve at each stage.
STEP 03
Build & Factory Test
Panels fabricated and tested in our UL 508a certified shop. PLC programs developed and simulated before arriving on your floor.
STEP 04
Install & Commission
On-site installation, loop tuning, acceptance testing, and operator training. We don't hand off until you're confident in the system.
WHY LOGIC CONTROL SYSTEMS
We've seen your problem before.
Probably solved it too.
UL 508a certified panel shop — in house
We don't outsource fabrication. Every panel is built, wired, and factory-tested in our certified shop before it arrives at your facility.
25+ years of real industrial experience
Not a general IT firm that added OT. We've been on manufacturing floors for over two decades — oil & gas, food processing, metals, ag, water/wastewater.
One partner, full accountability
Design, fabrication, programming, and commissioning under one roof. No pointing fingers between subs. One team, one scope, one point of contact.
ISNetworld verified safety credentials
Required by many enterprise and energy-sector clients. We maintain current safety certifications so your procurement process doesn't slow down the project.
We visit your facility first
Every project starts with a site visit. We learn how your process actually works before we write a single line of logic or specify a single component.
Systems built to be operated — not just to spec
We build for your operators, not just your engineering team. Clear HMI layouts, thorough documentation, and operator training are standard — not add-ons.
