A Proven Path That Does Not Bet the Plant

You own the risk. CPLANE gives you a production-proven path forward, documented cost reductions, and a phased migration that keeps your plant running throughout the transition.

You Own the Risk

When something goes wrong, it lands on you, and that is exactly what the incumbents count on when they tell you switching is too dangerous. But staying on aging proprietary infrastructure carries its own risk: rising costs, obsolescence, and a widening gap between what your plant can do and what your competitors already do.

CPLANE gives you a proven path forward that does not require betting the plant to take it, with the cost data and production references to move with confidence.

How We Can Work Together

Open automation is a significant decision. We help you make it with confidence.

Step 1

Understand Your Situation

We start by understanding your plant, your current system, and where the pain is. No pitch deck. Just a conversation about what you are running, what is not working, and what you want to be able to do.

Step 2

Build the Case Together

We help you translate the technical opportunity into a business case your organization can evaluate. That means TCO data, reference deployments, and a migration framework you can actually take to a capital review.

Step 3

Bring in the Right Partners

CPLANE works through certified SI partners who own the implementation. We help you identify the right partner for your project and make sure they are set up to deliver.

Step 4

Run a Meaningful Proof

Before a full deployment, we run a structured evaluation, the COPA 500 EvalKit, so your engineering team can validate the platform in your environment, against your requirements.

What CPLANE Gives You

A proven path forward that does not require betting the plant.

Documented cost reductions of over 50%

Open automation is not just modern, it is materially cheaper. Operators running CPLANE have documented hardware and software cost reductions of more than 50% versus a traditional DCS replacement, freeing capital for the work that actually moves your plant forward.

  • Over 50% lower hardware and software cost versus traditional DCS
  • Capital freed for optimization rather than vendor lock-in fees
  • TCO data you can take straight to a capital review
Lower cost is not a projection, it is documented in production.

Production-proven at major global operators

This is not a science project. CPLANE runs in live production at major global operators, not in pilots or proofs of concept, so you are adopting a platform that has already proven itself under real operating conditions.

  • Live deployments at major global operators
  • Proven under real production and safety conditions
  • Reference sites you can evaluate before you commit
Someone else has already taken the first-mover risk for you.

A phased migration that keeps the plant running

You do not have to choose between modernizing and keeping production up. CPLANE supports a phased migration that keeps your plant running throughout the transition, so you de-risk the move and avoid the extended shutdown the incumbents warn you about.

  • Production stays up throughout the transition
  • Minimize maintenance downtime with software-based redundancy, without the cost and rigidity of traditional redundant hardware.
  • Migrate in stages aligned to your turnaround schedule
Modernize the plant without ever having to stop it.

Multi-vendor flexibility that ends single-vendor dependency

The cost of lock-in is not just the upgrade invoice, it is the loss of leverage. CPLANE eliminates single-vendor dependency going forward, so you keep negotiating power and the freedom to choose the best components for your operation.

  • No single-vendor dependency going forward
  • Choose best-fit hardware and software per application
  • Retain leverage on cost, support, and roadmap
Keep your options, and your leverage, for the long run.

Cybersecurity built to IEC 62443 standards

Security and compliance risk sit on your desk too. The O-PAS standard is built to IEC 62443, reducing your compliance burden and operational risk rather than adding another system to patch and defend.

  • Built to IEC 62443 standards by design
  • Reduces compliance and operational risk
  • Security is part of the platform, not a bolt-on project
Compliance becomes a feature of the platform, not another chore.

A partner invested beyond the initial deployment

Modernization is not a one-time transaction. CPLANE is a long-term partner invested in your success well beyond go-live, with the technical depth and SI ecosystem to support your plant for the long run.

  • Support that continues well past initial deployment
  • Backed by a certified SI ecosystem near your operation
  • A partner whose roadmap is aligned with your operations
You are choosing a partner for the next decade, not a vendor for one project.
