PML Assists in Development
FAT, SAT, and IFAT Services
Reduce non-conformities and their negative impacts
FAT, SAT, and IFAT help to reduce the chance that non-conformities get through the supply chain which may increase the risk of failure, impact a project schedule, cause costly overruns, loss of life, or environmental impacts. They should be done in highly complex critical equipment packages, equipment with new technology, and when installation on site is complicated.
PML will help you avoid costly redesign and troubleshooting during outage operations. Conducting these tests is an opportunity to verify communications between systems and discover any potential issues prior to installation.
Significant Advantages & Benefits
FEED and FEL Services
Ensure your FEED paves the way for successful project execution
Help is sometimes needed to identify and justify the right project to achieve your production goals. Whether it’s a Front End Engineering Design (FEED) study to justify an improvement project, or consulting for overall throughput improvements, our experts apply their process knowledge to accomplish your objectives.
Integration and Migration Services
The appropriate integration and migration plan for you
Using the tested system configuration, operator orientation to the new automation solution can begin in PML’s dedicated staging areas.
Application System Specialists can provide operators with process animation to emulate simple system dynamics with the same application used for acceptance testing. Our inexpensive techniques and tools give operators the required knowledge to use their new automation solution effectively.
The Lead Application System Specialist and the Operations representatives jointly identify the training content and goals. We can use our standard documentation to support the Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) of the automation system or collaboratively prepare a customized FAT testing document.
Once testing has been completed and signed off by the customer’s project team representative, the automation system is then prepared for crating and shipment. If desired, PML also offers storage services to meet your project schedule requirements.
Loop Drawings
Determine how well your control loops are performing
With PML’s Loop Drawings, you can gain insight from industry experts and receive recommended actions to improve your Control Performance Score. Loop Service allows you to minimize operator interventions, maximize the number of automatic and well-performing loops, identify bottlenecks and investigate instrumentation and tuning issues.

Project Management
Automation and instrumentation are critical for project execution
Making the right choice for your automation platform and who implements it can mitigate risk to your project and ongoing operations. With the current challenging commodity prices affecting your project economics and increased shareholder scrutiny on their return on investment (ROI), making the right choice of automation platform and execution team is imperative.
A highly integrated approach to automation, referred to as a Main Automation Contractor (MAC), will help you meet your project needs. PML has highly skilled and experienced industry professionals who can effectively support your project with industry-leading automation and instrumation technology.
Highlights
Standard and Custom Enclosure Design
The containment of one spark can make a difference
The right enclosure is a necessity when it comes to safe and productive operating environments. To protect your equipment and employees, they need to be designed to be strong enough to withstand the effects of corrosion, weather extremes and time. Whatever your requirements, we’ll develop an enclosure solution your facility requires.
