National Standard: SCADA and Upper-Level Systems

A unified approach to automation of industrial and infrastructure assets: water supply, wastewater and energy systems.

We develop and implement common standards for dispatching centers and operator workstations, enabling secure data collection and transmission.

Reference architecture

  • SCADA subsystem: real-time data collection from PLC controllers and automation cabinets.
  • Hydraulic and energy modeling: forecasting network loads.
  • Asset passportization and data storage: centralized technical archive for each node and unit.
  • Predictive analytics: detection of hidden defects before they become incidents.

Economic effect

  • Resource losses in networks reduced by 15.50%.
  • Unplanned repair costs reduced by 20.30%.
  • Common requirements for secure data exchange between sites, dispatching centers and analytics systems.

SCADA architecture layers

Site

PLCs, RTUs, control cabinets, local panels and field measurements.

Control room

Operator workstations, mimic diagrams, alarms, event journal and shift reporting.

Data center

Historical archive, analytics, ERP/CMMS integration and management dashboards.

Data and security requirements

  • Unified signal passport: source, unit, valid range, polling frequency and importance class.
  • Separated roles for operator, engineer, contractor and auditor.
  • Logging of setpoint changes, alarm acknowledgements and manual interventions.
  • Readiness for backing up configurations, history and project documentation.
