What are you trying
What are you trying
to solve?
Six problems we are asked about most. Pick the one that sounds like yours and it will take you to the part of the site that answers it.
Automation
“I need a machine or a line automated.”
Controls“I need PLC, SCADA or robot programming.”
Retrofit“My equipment is ageing but still works.”
Visibility“I cannot see what my plant is really doing.”
Throughput“My cycle time is too slow.”
Quality“I need quality documented as it happens.”
Traceability“I need to trace a part back through the line.”
Maintenance“Machines fail before I know they are failing.”
Inspection“Visual inspection depends on who is on shift.”
Scheduling“My production plan stops surviving contact with the floor.”
Or start from your industry: Automotive, Food & Beverage, Life Sciences, Process & HVAC, Textile, Warehouse & Logistics.
What we do
Engineered offline. Delivered on-site. Worldwide.
Four disciplines, one accountable partner instead of a chain of vendors. Electrical design, controls software, digital platforms and commissioning stay under one roof — engineered and proven offline in simulation, then commissioned on-site at plants across 30+ countries.
MAPP — MES / IIoT platform
Six modules. One platform. Shop floor to top floor, on-premise or cloud.
01
Control Software Development
PLC · HMI · SCADA · RoboticsDesign and development of PLC programs, HMI interfaces, SCADA systems and robotic automation across Siemens, Rockwell, Beckhoff, Mitsubishi, KUKA, FANUC and ABB platforms.
02
Industry 4.0 & IT Services
MAPP MES / IIoT PlatformDigital transformation through the MAPP MES/IIoT platform and AI-driven analytics — turning machine data into real-time visibility, better decisions and continuous operational improvement.
03
Electrical Engineering & Design
E-Plan · AutoCADComplete electrical engineering and documentation using E-Plan and AutoCAD, delivering accurate schematics, panel designs and implementation-ready drawings to CE, UL, IEC and OSHA standards.
04
Onsite Commissioning
Global DeploymentEnd-to-end on-site commissioning of automation systems including installation, testing, debugging and startup — ensuring smooth deployment across global facilities.
MAPP EYE
Performance Monitoring
Real-time visibility into machine, line and plant KPIs with automated OEE, downtime reason codes and AI-driven performance analytics.
MAPP ZENDigital Quality 4.0
A complete quality suite — from auto ballooning to PFMEA, PFD, control plans, digital inspection and online SPC, with native vision-system support.
MAPP TRAILTrack & Trace
Full product and process genealogy for every part, operation and material — 4M traceability with barcode, QR and RFID tracking.
MAPP VITAMaintenance Management
Preventive, condition-based and predictive maintenance unified with digital work orders, spare inventory and MTBF/MTTR analytics.
MAPP ADEPTProduction Scheduling
AI-assisted, OEE-aware scheduling with ERP order syncing, what-if analysis, load balancing and schedule-adherence analytics.
MAPP SPRINTDigital Supply Chain
Material movement tracking, supplier quality integration, ASN validation and lead-time analytics across the inbound and outbound chain.

Industries
Specialised automation, across every sector.
Every industry has its own constraints — hygiene, GMP, cycle time, traceability. We engineer to yours.
Automotive
Complete automation for manufacturing and assembly lines — body shop, powertrain, traceability and error-proofing.
Food & Beverage
Hygienic automation for food processing and dairy — batch control, CIP sequencing and cold-chain monitoring.
Life Sciences & Pharma
GMP-compliant automation for pharmaceutical production and packaging, with audit-ready electronic records.
Warehouse & Logistics
Advanced ASRS and warehouse management systems, AGV integration and real-time inventory visibility.
Process & HVAC
Process control and automation for chemical and petrochemical plants, utilities, ETP and energy management.
Textile
Specialised automation for textile manufacturing and material handling, with machine-level performance monitoring.
Automotive OEM standards
Built to the standard
Built to the standard
your OEM audits.
Automotive programmes are specified by the OEM, not the integrator. We deliver control systems and documentation in compliance with global automotive manufacturing standards — including these.

What this means
Built to the OEM's spec, not retrofitted
Tag naming, block structure, safety architecture and documentation follow the OEM's own specification from the first line of code — not retrofitted after a review.
Why it matters
Machine builders stay compliant
If you supply equipment into these plants, your controls package has to match their standard. We write to it so your acceptance is a formality.
Where it applies
Body shop to end of line
Robotic cells, assembly stations, machining lines, conveyors and end-of-line handling — anywhere an OEM specification governs the controls.
Why KNEO
The Engineering Partner for Modern Manufacturing.
Leading provider of PLC engineering, SCADA systems and complete turnkey automation solutions — Engineering industrial automation and Industry 4.0 systems since 2003, across 30+ countries.
After two decades inside manufacturing facilities, one pattern repeats: visibility is always the first problem to solve. We instrument before we optimise.
Everything under one roof
Automation and Industry 4.0 expertise in a single partner — from electrical design to PLC code to cloud dashboards. No handoffs lost between vendors.
Scalable teams
Scale engineering capacity up or down as your project demands — without hiring overhead or long ramp-up cycles.
Legacy upgrades
Modernise existing systems with minimal downtime — retrofitting, re-tooling and SCADA integration that brings old equipment up to today's standards.
How we work
From first conversation
From first conversation
to production ramp-up.
A disciplined delivery model, refined across 400+ automation projects and validated by ISO 9001:2015 processes.
STEP 01
Discovery & feasibility
We study the process, capture cycle-time and takt data, identify bottlenecks and agree measurable objectives before a single line of code is written.
STEP 02
Engineering & design
Functional design specification, E-Plan schematics, panel layouts, safety architecture (SIL/PL) and I/O planning — all reviewed with your team.
STEP 03
Software development
PLC logic, HMI/SCADA screens, robot programs, recipe management, alarms and historian — developed offline so your team stays focused on execution.
STEP 04
Virtual commissioning
A digital twin catches collisions, sequence errors and logic faults in software, before the system ever reaches your shop floor.
STEP 05
Onsite commissioning
Installation, I/O validation, safety testing, line balancing and production ramp-up support — anywhere in the world, with operator training included.
STEP 06
Support & continuous improvement
Ongoing maintenance, troubleshooting, software updates and system enhancements, backed by annual maintenance contracts that include 24/7 remote support.
Insights
Field notes from the shop floor.
Practical perspectives on OEE, data quality, predictive maintenance and what Industry 4.0 actually looks like in production.
