Industrial automation in Riyadh: remote first, site when it counts
Riyadh is about 400 km from our office by road, so we do not treat it as a day trip. Each stage is placed where it costs the least and proves the most.
| Stage | Where it is done | What you receive | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design and programming | Dammam office | Software to IEC 61131-3 | PLC 2–6 weeks, HMI 1–4 weeks |
| Functional FAT | Remote session or your Riyadh site | Signed test record | Per project schedule |
| Installation and loop checks | Your Riyadh site | Loop folders | Per project schedule |
| SCADA, telemetry and reporting | Dammam, then site start-up | WinCC, FactoryTalk, AVEVA, Ignition; Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT | SCADA 4–12 weeks; telemetry 3–8 weeks |
Which Riyadh industrial areas do we support?
We take work in the Riyadh 1st and 2nd Industrial Cities, Sudair Industrial City and the logistics area around the Riyadh Dry Port. Buyers there are often food and beverage producers, plastics and packaging converters, cement and building-materials plants, and water treatment operators. Two sector pages go deeper: food and beverage and cement plants.
Riyadh is also where many owners, consultants and procurement offices sit, even when the plant is elsewhere. We answer prequalification questionnaires with our approvals and management-system certificates. We are approved by Saudi Aramco, SABIC and the Royal Commission, and hold ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. In Riyadh we have worked on projects for Saudi Aramco.
Can a Dammam team commission a plant in Riyadh?
Yes. The commissioning engineer travels with tested software, spare modules and a loop-check schedule, so the site visit is spent proving the system rather than writing it. For a Rockwell plant, our Studio 5000 integration team writes and tests the code in Dammam first. Later changes are usually made through a secure remote link, so a small alarm fix does not need a second trip. See commissioning for the test steps.
How do we plan site visits for Riyadh projects?
- We list every activity that needs physical access, such as cabinet checks, sensor wiring and start-up.
- We group them into one or two visits and agree dates with your site manager.
- Software, backups and test sheets are completed before the first visit.
- The visit team carries the laptops, cables and spares for the controller family in use.
- After start-up, we hold a remote handover with your operators and maintenance staff.
Riyadh industrial automation questions
Who provides industrial automation in Riyadh?
KSA Industrial Automation Company provides PLC, HMI and SCADA engineering for Riyadh plants, working from Al Shati District in Dammam and travelling for site stages. Saudi Aramco, SABIC and the Royal Commission all approve our company. Send your I/O list for a quotation within one working day.
What affects the cost of automation work in Riyadh?
The drivers are I/O count, controller platform, screen count, how much testing you want to witness and the number of site visits. Remote programming and remote FAT keep the travel share small, and a quotation shows site days separately.
How long does a Riyadh automation project take?
PLC programming typically takes 2–6 weeks per system, HMI 1–4 weeks and SCADA 4–12 weeks. Site stages are added according to the plant's access dates, which we confirm in the proposal.
Do you hold a remote FAT for a Riyadh client?
Yes. We run the program against a simulator, share the screen and walk your engineers through each test case. You mark the test sheet live, and the signed record goes into the handover pack.
Can you take over a system that another integrator left?
Yes. We back up the running program, document the I/O and alarms, and rank the faults before changing any logic. Many Riyadh customers start with this audit and then move to a retrofit.
What should I send for a quotation?
Send the I/O list, P&IDs or a functional description, plus the site address and any access rules for your Riyadh plant. Existing program backups let us price a takeover or retrofit precisely.
