Turn Real-Time Operational Data into Faster, Better Decisions.
Adroit SCADA brings data acquisition, visualisation, alarming, history, enterprise connectivity and secure control into one open, scalable platform - from stand-alone systems to distributed, multi-site operations.
One Platform for Real-Time Visibility, Control and Industrial Intelligence
Adroit SCADA is a real-time SCADA/HMI platform for connecting, monitoring and controlling industrial operations. It takes raw data from PLCs, RTUs and other front-end devices, turns it into clear operational visualisation, and adds the functions needed to alarm, log, trend, analyse and act on what is happening.
Under the hood, Adroit uses a flexible, object-oriented client-server architecture. Intelligent Agents manage real-time values and behaviour; the SmartUI Server brings together operational and transactional data sources; and the Designer and Operator provide the engineering and runtime environments. The same architecture can support a compact stand-alone installation or scale into centralised, distributed and redundant systems.
For organisations that need to connect plant-floor data to reporting, mobility or enterprise systems, Adroit is designed around open interfaces and standard technologies. This makes the SCADA layer a practical operational platform rather than an isolated control-room application.
What Adroit SCADA Does
Connect. Understand. Control. Improve.
Connect plant and business data
Bring together PLCs, RTUs, industrial networks, databases, OPC UA, web services and other operational data sources in one environment.
Turn signals into operational context
Use intelligent, object-oriented Agents to scan, condition, alarm, log and process real-time values rather than treating every signal as an isolated tag.
Give operators a clearer picture
Build secure, responsive operator interfaces with live graphics, alarms, trends, historical information and situational-awareness views.
Extend information beyond the control room
Use browser, mobile, reporting and integration components to put the right operational information in front of engineering, operations and management teams.

Introduction to Adroit SCADA
Adroit SCADA Overview
Features and Benefits
Built for Complex Operations.
Engineered to Stay Manageable.
Adroit supports more than 100 built-in front-end device and protocol connections and can also work with technologies such as OPC UA, MQTT, SNMP/ICMP, OLE DB databases and Web Services.
Benefit: Connect mixed automation assets without forcing every system through one proprietary path.
The Agent Server uses intelligent objects that contain both state and behaviour. Individual values can be scanned, alarmed and logged, while specialised Agent types handle functions such as OEE, Energy, Auditing, scheduling, recipes and statistics.
Benefit: Build more capability into the SCADA layer and reduce the number of separate applications required for common operational functions.
Use Excel-based bulk/offline configuration, reusable Object Model templates, wizards and libraries. Adroit ships with more than 300 shapes and wizards in the standard graphic environment.
Benefit: Reduce repetitive configuration, improve standardisation and shorten commissioning and maintenance effort.
The SmartUI environment is built on the Microsoft .NET platform and supports vector graphics, Windows controls, custom user controls, multi-monitor operation and situational-awareness design. SmartUI supports scripting using Visual Basic.NET, C# and Python, providing flexibility for custom engineering and integration requirements.
Benefit: Present the right information clearly and build interfaces around the way operators actually work.
Adroit integrates with Microsoft users and groups, including domain environments, and can secure projects down to individual data elements or client controls. Built-in auditing records engineering, system and setpoint changes.
Benefit: Control who can see and change information while improving traceability and accountability.
Real-time values and events can be alarmed and logged for reporting, analysis or trending. Extend that intelligence with Alarm Management.
Benefit: Move from live monitoring to context: what happened, when it happened and what changed before it happened.
Start with a stand-alone installation and expand into centralised or distributed architectures with separate Agent Servers, Designers and Operators as the application grows.
Benefit: Add capacity and users without rebuilding the project from the ground up.
For critical systems, Active Clustering supports master/standby Agent Servers with replication, historical catch-up and switchover mechanisms.
Benefit: Improve system resilience where continuous availability of operational data is essential.
The Adroit scanning architecture can scan data on demand so that values being viewed, logged, alarmed or used in calculations receive priority rather than scanning everything unnecessarily.
Benefit: Reduce avoidable communication load and use control-network bandwidth more efficiently.
Adroit exposes data through open interfaces and can extend information to Excel, reporting, browser and mobile components as well as third-party applications.
Benefit: Make operational data useful to engineering, operations and management instead of trapping it inside the control room.
Technology Stack & Data Flow
How Adroit SCADA Turns Field Data into Operational Insight
Adroit separates data acquisition, middleware and presentation into clear layers. That separation is what allows the same project to remain manageable as the system grows, while also making it possible to integrate real-time, transactional and web-service data into the operator environment.
1. Field & Operational Data
PLCs, RTUs, industrial networks, OPC UA/MQTT endpoints, databases and web services provide the raw operational and contextual information.
2. Agent Server
The real-time data layer handles scanning, value processing, alarming, datalogging and intelligent Agent behaviour.
3. SmartUI Server
The middleware layer connects data sources, manages projects, security and graphic forms, and exposes information to the client environment.
4. Designer & Operator
Engineering teams configure the application in Designer; operators use configured graphic forms, alarms, trends and controls at runtime.
5. Extended Visibility
Browser, mobile, reporting, Excel and third-party integrations extend selected operational information beyond the core Operator environment.
Architecture & Scalability
Build Small. Scale Out.
Add Resilience Where It Matters.
Adroit SCADA is not tied to a single deployment model. The client-server architecture can be arranged to match the application, network topology and availability requirements.
Stand-alone
Operator, Designer and Agent Server can run together on one workstation for a compact local application.
Centralised
A central server can supply multiple operator and engineering clients across the plant network.
Distributed
Multiple Agent Servers and client stations can be distributed by process area or site while remaining part of the same operational architecture.
Active Cluster
Critical applications can use master and standby Agent Servers, with replication and switchover mechanisms for server-level redundancy.
Engineer Faster - Standardise and Reuse
Engineer Once. Reuse the Work Everywhere.
A major strength of Adroit SCADA is the ability to move away from one-off tag-by-tag engineering. Standard equipment objects, bulk tools and reusable graphics make it easier to create consistent projects and maintain them over time.
Reusable Object Model
Create reusable equipment templates for pumps, valves, conveyors, fans and other assets. Instances can inherit scanning, logging, alarming and graphic configuration from the standardised object.
Bulk Engineering with Excel
The Adroit Add-in for Microsoft Excel provides a bulk and offline method of configuring the Agent database (.wgp) for advanced users - useful where large quantities of configuration data need to be created or maintained.
Wizards & Asset Library
Choose from our online Asset Library. Use preassembled modules, navigation templates and more than 300 shapes and wizards to reduce repetitive engineering and support a common look and feel.
Context-Driven Engineering
Classify equipment and objects using context so that users can search, group and navigate information in ways that reflect the actual plant hierarchy or operational purpose.
Consistent Operator Experience
Use clear, consistent visual language, structured navigation, context-aware graphics and modular components to reduce operator cognitive load and make runtime behaviour easier to understand.

Built-in Intelligence Beyond Basic SCADA
More Than Tags: Intelligent Objects for Real Operational Work
Adroit Agents are the fundamental building blocks of the Agent Server. Because they combine state with behaviour, the platform can do more than read and display signals: the same architecture can support alarms, history, scheduling, recipes, calculations, performance functions and system monitoring.
Real-Time Process Control
Analog, digital, counter, expression and other Agent types manage common process values and behaviours.
Alarm & Event Handling
Alarm, AlarmList and AlarmManagement functions support live alarm workflows and historical analysis.
Production & Performance
OEE, counters, accumulators and statistical functions can bring performance-oriented logic into the SCADA environment.
Energy Management
Maximum Demand and related objects can help operations monitor demand and support energy-management strategies.
Network & System Health
SNMP, ICMP, performance monitoring and system-information Agents provide visibility into supporting infrastructure.
Automation Logic & Workflow
Scheduling, recipes, scripting, notifications and database interactions extend the platform for application-specific requirements.
