One asset.
Multiple blind spots.

Industrial asset digitalization uses sensors, industrial IoT, remote monitoring, asset management systems, AI video analytics and digital twins to improve visibility into the operation, condition and lifecycle of physical assets such as pumps, motors, compressors and generators.

Remote asset monitoring collects and displays equipment parameters such as temperature, pressure, vibration, current and running hours away from the physical equipment, supporting pumps, motors, compressors, generators, electrical systems and other critical equipment.

Research centres, naval defence, upstream and downstream Oil and Gas, drilling services, state power utilities, solar power infrastructure, municipal water supply, marine and shipping, large leisure operations and manufacturing. Detailed client references are available on request under NDA.

Yes, in most cases. NexWave acquires from existing PLCs, SCADA systems, sensors and communication infrastructure over Modbus RTU and TCP, OPC UA, MQTT, Profinet, IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-104 and similar industrial protocols. Acquisition is read-only by default and does not modify control logic.

In most cases, yes. NexView works over standard ONVIF and RTSP streams from existing cameras. Suitability depends on camera resolution, frame rate, placement, lighting and the specific detection use case, which SMEC checks during the site assessment before recommending any camera changes.

AI video analytics applies computer vision to existing CCTV streams to detect defined safety and security events automatically — PPE non-compliance, restricted zone access, perimeter intrusion, fire or smoke indicators, loitering and unattended objects — and alert the relevant team through centralised video monitoring in real time.

No. All four platforms can be deployed fully on-premise or at the edge, with no external connectivity. Private cloud and hybrid deployments are also supported where the operator prefers them. Deployment model is decided by the operator, not by the platform.

Data acquisition is read-only by default, the control system is not modified, and the monitoring network is segmented from the control network following IEC 62443 zone and conduit principles. Unidirectional data flow is used where the operator requires it. Access is role-based and audited.

Preventive maintenance is scheduled at fixed intervals regardless of equipment condition. Condition-based maintenance uses real equipment data such as vibration, temperature and current draw to decide when maintenance is actually needed. ProSet360 supports both, and NexWave supplies the condition data that makes the second possible.

Yes. Digitalization does not require replacing the control system. Existing PLC, SCADA, instrumentation, CCTV, sensors and engineering data are assessed first to identify what can be connected before anything new is proposed.

A digital twin brings engineering data, operating data and maintenance history together into one model of a physical asset so behaviour can be tested, validated and predicted virtually. SMEC has delivered pump and motor twins in naval defence and a digital twin pilot for an upstream Oil and Gas operator, alongside unmanned vehicle and robotics simulation.

Start with the asset problem rather than the technology: identify the equipment or process, the current visibility gap, the data already available, and the decision that needs to improve. SMEC reviews potential approaches from there, typically starting with a single pilot use case.

A single-asset or single-use-case pilot typically runs four to eight weeks from data access to a working dashboard. Cost depends on the number and type of assets, the parameters monitored, the sensors and connectivity already in place, and whether the deployment is on-premise or cloud. SMEC scopes this during the technical assessment rather than quoting a flat rate upfront.

Asset-intensive sectors including Oil and Gas, refineries and petrochemicals, offshore and drilling, marine and naval vessels, ports and terminals, power and utilities, water infrastructure, research and defence, and heavy industrial manufacturing across India, the Middle East and global project locations.

SMEC combines over 25 years of electrical, instrumentation, automation and industrial-communication engineering with four platforms already running in research, defence, energy and utility environments. Digitalization is approached as an engineering problem first, not purely a software rollout, and delivery is supported from India through SMEC Automation Pvt Ltd and from the Middle East through SMEC Oil & Gas Solutions LLC.
