If your platform isn’t listed, contact us — our team has experience across a wide range of legacy systems.
Can Bopat upgrade an obsolete PLC to a modern platform?
Yes. Bopat specializes in migrating obsolete and no-longer-supported PLC platforms to the modern system of your choice — including the full scope that comes with it: variable frequency drive upgrades, new panels, motor control upgrades, and related machine upgrades. We can fully test, troubleshoot, and document every I/O point, wire, and label in the control system before and after migration, so nothing is lost in the transition.
Does Bopat provide emergency automation support?
Yes. Bopat maintains 24-hour, 365-day support teams that can be on site quickly to troubleshoot industrial plant issues — PLC failures, equipment breakdowns, and motor, automation, and control failures. Support is available both on a contract basis and as immediate-response service, backed by more than 25 skilled service technicians in the field daily across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington DC.
What is third-party on-site maintenance and how does it work?
Third-party maintenance means Bopat supplies the skilled maintenance capability your plant needs without you having to recruit and retain it in-house. Depending on your requirements, this can include maintenance technicians embedded at your facility, CMMS support, reliability engineering, and plant engineering — with shift coverage matched to your plant’s operating schedule.
Can Bopat design new control systems, not just maintain existing ones?
Yes. Bopat’s controls engineers provide full design services for automation and control systems, from individual equipment solutions through complete system design. Combined with Bopat’s construction and electrical service capabilities, this means a single team can take a controls project from design through installation, commissioning, and ongoing support.
Does Bopat offer training on automation and controls?
Yes. Bopat offers on-site and off-site automation training in short and long formats, including a five-day program covering troubleshooting, sensors and safety controls, motor theory, variable frequency drives, and PLC fundamentals. Learn more on our Training Services page.
