Industrial Software for Manufacturing & Operations
We help industrial companies turn their operational data into decisions operations can act on — measurable performance, coherent systems and integration that holds up.
Partner Credentials
Ignition Credentialed Integrator
SCADA, MES, and industrial data integration with Ignition.
We make plant performance measurable, then improve it — starting from the data you already generate.
SCADA, MES and historian work scoped to the problem in front of you rather than to a platform roadmap.
Connecting the plant floor to the rest of the business, and keeping it running once it is connected.
Before proposing an implementation, we look at what you already have. The fastest gain often comes from correcting how existing systems capture and report data rather than from replacing them. When a new system genuinely is the answer, the assessment says so, with the reasoning made explicit.
A written assessment covering the agreed scope, prioritized improvement opportunities, the gaps we found, the minimum technical solution for each one, and the expected operational impact. We do not invent pricing, timelines or ROI figures to make the case look stronger.
Agree the scope and the questions worth answering
Review current systems, data flows and reporting
Talk to the people running the process
Identify and prioritize improvement opportunities
Document findings, minimum solutions and expected impact
We have worked in plants of some of the most demanding manufacturers in the world, in both continuous and discrete processes. In gypsum board, continuous production, board grading and kiln performance make data quality and reason-code discipline especially consequential. In consumer goods we work at the speed and data volume of high-output lines, with Centerlining and quality control projects in filling and converting.
Government & public services
We apply our SCADA, historian and data-integration experience so municipalities, cooperatives and utilities can supervise wells, pumping stations, tanks and distributed facilities from one place.
Proficy Plant Applications MES across diaper, feminine care, paper, personal care and assembly plants. Centerlining and filling quality programs, plus extensive production data integration and analysis.
Greenfield Proficy Plant Applications implementation and ERP integration.
Plant Applications ERP integration and ongoing support.
Plant Applications and ThingWorx applications.
MES on Ignition and Sepasoft, OEE dashboards and a regional database consolidating Ignition data.
A database that collects and organizes Historian data for operational reporting.
For confidentiality we do not publish client names. We are happy to share more in a meeting.
We work day to day with Proficy and Ignition, also with ThingWorx, and integrate with whatever the plant already runs. We are not a reseller or an official partner: what we offer is real implementation experience, backed by technical certifications in Ignition and Proficy.

Why Austral
Industrial software implementations are high-stakes: a mistake can cost hours of downtime, lost data, or expensive rework. That is why every project is led personally by Santiago Gimenez, with 10 years in Proficy Plant Applications and 4+ years in Ignition. No sales layer selling one thing and a different team delivering another.
The person who designs the solution is the one who implements it and stands behind it, from discovery to support.
We understand the operational realities of industrial environments, not just the software. Every solution we deliver is built with operational continuity and data integrity in mind.
Our teams use documented designs, structured testing, and clear handovers to deliver maintainable software.
We work with manufacturing and industrial operations enterprises, building long-term relationships — not one-time project engagements — with the organizations we serve.
Understand the problem, define the solution, validate it, and support its use in production.
We learn your operations, existing systems, and business goals through structured workshops and site assessments.
We architect the right approach — platform selection, integration strategy, data model, and project roadmap.
Our engineers build, configure, and rigorously test the solution against your operational requirements.
We manage go-live and stay with you post-deployment with training, documentation, and ongoing support.
