SCADA 1 by IngrOInfo combines an unlimited licensing model with instant web-based deployment and the industry-leading toolset for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) — an open and scalable universal platform. SCADA 1 is The New SCADA because it solves all the major pain points of old SCADA.
The basic SCADA architecture begins with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or remote terminal units (RTUs). PLCs and RTUs are microcomputers that communicate with an array of objects such as factory machines, HMIs, sensors, and end devices — routing information from those objects to computers with SCADA software. The software processes, distributes, and displays the data, helping operators and employees analyze data and make important decisions.
SCADA systems are used by industrial organizations and companies in the public and private sectors to control and maintain efficiency, distribute data for smarter decisions, and communicate system issues to help mitigate downtime. SCADA can improve efficiency and productivity, reduce costs and waste, and give you greater control over geographically distributed assets.
SCADA systems are the backbone of many modern industries — ranging from simple configurations to large, complex multi-site installations across public and private sectors.
Develop at lightning speed with the Ignition Designer, the industry's most powerful integrated development environment (IDE), which gives you all the tools you need, all in one place. The Ignition Designer is built into the platform — so it's instantly available, it's always the right version, it works on any major OS, and it comes with an unlimited number of concurrent design clients. Now your whole team can work on your project at the same time, from anywhere, at no extra cost.
Sensors detect inputs from industrial processes — acting like gauges measuring machine status. Actuators control the mechanism — acting like switches, dials, or control valves. Both are controlled and monitored by SCADA field controllers.
RTUs interface with sensors to collect telemetry data and forward it for further action. PLCs interface with actuators to control industrial processes based on current telemetry and set standards — the two fundamental field controller types.
Control all SCADA processes, gather data from field devices, and send commands to those devices to control industrial processes. The central intelligence of the entire SCADA system architecture.
Consolidates and presents data from SCADA field devices. Enables operators to understand and, if needed, modify the status of SCADA-controlled processes — the primary human interface with the industrial system.
Enables SCADA supervisory systems to communicate with field devices and field controllers — collecting data and sending control commands. The backbone of the entire monitoring and control network.
HMI/SCADA, automation, and Industrial Internet (IIoT) and cloud solutions — connecting field devices to enterprise systems for real-time operational visibility and data-driven decision making at scale.
Understanding the core components of SCADA architecture — from field sensors to supervisory computers and HMI software — and how they work together to give you complete industrial control.
The field-level input/output layer that interfaces with industrial processes.
A sensor is a feature of a device or system that detects inputs from industrial processes. An actuator is a feature that controls the mechanism of the process. In simple terms, a sensor functions like a gauge or meter displaying machine status; an actuator acts like a switch, dial, or control valve to control a device. Both are controlled and monitored by SCADA field controllers.
RTUs and PLCs — the two categories of field controllers in SCADA systems.
Field controllers interface directly with sensors and actuators:

SCADA ONE delivers measurable operational improvements — with IngrOInfo's expertise tailored to your specific industry and municipality requirements.
Real-time monitoring, automated process control, and instant data access eliminate manual bottlenecks and reduce operational delays across all your industrial assets.
Early detection of issues, optimized process control, and reduced downtime directly translate to lower operational costs and reduced resource waste in water, power, and industrial operations.
Greater control over geographically distributed assets — pump stations, treatment plants, substations, and remote field sites — all from a centralized SCADA platform.
IngrOInfo tailors its SCADA approach to provide the specific management, operations, and maintenance services each municipality requires — water, wastewater, irrigation, and more.
Responsible management of costs while ensuring regulatory compliance — SCADA ONE supports accurate data logging, reporting, and audit trails required by government and regulatory bodies.
SCADA ONE integrates directly with UBARMS ERP, Smart Pipe 360, and Maintenance Management — connecting operational data to billing, GIS, and asset management in one unified platform.
