FAQ

Smart utilities solutions — frequently asked

What SCADA and control systems solutions does ACE offer?
ACE delivers six core smart utilities solutions: industrial communications (radio, cellular, satellite, fibre optic, IIoT), SCADA and HMI design and development, PLC programming across major vendors, telemetry and RTU configuration, control panel design and manufacturing, and the ACEems CONNECT web-based EMS and SCADA platform for renewable energy and BESS fleet operations.
Which SCADA platforms and vendors does ACE work with?
ACE is platform-agnostic and works across all major industrial automation vendors including Siemens, Schneider Electric, Rockwell Automation (Allen Bradley), Honeywell, Hitachi Energy (formerly ABB), SEL, Inductive Automation Ignition, VTScada, and GeoSCADA. We are certified system integrators for Schneider and Siemens and select the best platform for each client's technical and commercial requirements.
What is ACE's project delivery process?
ACE follows a structured five-stage delivery lifecycle: (1) Concept and Budget — scoping, risk assessment, and architecture design; (2) Detailed Design — signal lists, network design, and programming specification; (3) Build and Test — programming, factory acceptance testing (FAT), and evidence packs; (4) Commissioning — site acceptance testing (SAT), integration, and operator training; (5) Operations — 24/7 remote support, monitoring, and maintenance.
Does ACE provide 24/7 remote monitoring and support?
Yes. ACE provides 24/7 remote monitoring, diagnostics, and maintenance support for SCADA and control systems across utilities. Our operational services include alarm response, performance analysis, software updates, security patching, and proactive issue detection. This service is particularly valuable for renewable energy fleet operations, wide-area water utility networks, and remote mining infrastructure.
Can ACE design custom SCADA solutions for complex operations?
Yes. ACE's strength is creating intelligent, customised SCADA and control systems for complex operations. Rather than forcing off-the-shelf products onto difficult requirements, we design purpose-built solutions that resolve recurring operational issues, integrate with legacy systems, and are easy to manage long-term. Every project is shaped by your vision, asset knowledge, and operational goals.
What is ACEems CONNECT?
ACEems CONNECT is ACE's web-based EMS and SCADA platform purpose-built for grid-connected renewables and BESS fleet operations. It provides multi-site monitoring, historian and trending, alarm workflows, dispatch-aware operations, and third-party data mapping — sitting above existing field control systems with no need to replace PPC or OEM equipment. Developed and supported by local Australian engineers.
