Core Integration Capabilities
We deliver production-ready integrations that connect your legacy SCADA infrastructure to blockchain networks, ensuring data integrity, operational resilience, and new revenue streams without disrupting your core operations.
Business Outcomes for Energy & Industrial Operators
Our legacy SCADA integration delivers measurable improvements in operational efficiency, security, and compliance. We focus on outcomes you can quantify and report to stakeholders.
Immutable Data Provenance & Audit Trail
We integrate blockchain ledgers with your SCADA historians to create tamper-proof records of all sensor data, control actions, and maintenance logs. This provides a single source of truth for regulatory compliance (NERC CIP, ISO 27001) and dispute resolution.
Automated Asset Tokenization & Trading
We tokenize physical assets (e.g., energy credits, carbon offsets, grid capacity) on enterprise-grade blockchains. Enable automated P2P trading, fractional ownership, and new revenue streams through smart contract-powered marketplaces.
Enhanced Grid Security & Anomaly Detection
Our integration uses blockchain-verified data feeds to power AI-driven anomaly detection. Smart contracts can automatically trigger isolation protocols for compromised nodes, significantly reducing the attack surface for critical infrastructure.
Streamlined Multi-Party Settlements
Replace manual, reconciliation-heavy processes with automated smart contracts. We enable real-time, transparent settlements between generators, distributors, and consumers, reducing administrative overhead and eliminating disputes.
Predictive Maintenance with Verified Data
Leverage cryptographically verified operational data from SCADA systems to train more accurate ML models. Predict equipment failures with higher confidence, schedule maintenance proactively, and avoid costly unplanned downtime.
Regulatory Compliance Automation
We architect systems where compliance proofs (emissions reporting, safety checks, operational limits) are generated and immutably logged on-chain automatically. Drastically reduce the manual labor and cost associated with regulatory audits.

Our Phased, Risk-Mitigated Delivery Process
We de-risk your SCADA modernization with a structured, milestone-driven approach. Each phase delivers tangible value and a clear go/no-go decision point, ensuring your project stays on time, on budget, and aligned with operational goals.
Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your existing SCADA/OT environment and define the immutable data schema. This phase delivers a detailed technical specification and a proof-of-concept smart contract for data anchoring, establishing a shared blueprint for the entire project.
Phase 2: Core Integration & MVP
Our engineers build and deploy the secure middleware (oracle/relayer) connecting your SCADA historian to the blockchain. We implement the first production-ready data stream with on-chain verification, delivering a functional MVP for a single, critical asset or process line.
Phase 3: Security Hardening & Audit
All smart contracts and integration layers undergo rigorous internal testing and a formal security audit by a third-party firm like CertiK or Quantstamp. We implement a zero-trust access model and finalize disaster recovery procedures before full-scale deployment.
Phase 4: Full Deployment & Scaling
We roll out the integrated system across your designated asset portfolio. This includes configuring additional data streams, onboarding operational teams, and establishing continuous monitoring dashboards for blockchain data integrity and system health.
Phase 5: Ongoing Support & Optimization
Transition to a managed service model with 24/7 monitoring, incident response, and periodic system health checks. We provide continuous optimization for gas efficiency and support the integration of new assets or compliance reporting modules.
Custom Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built to your exact specifications, from concept to mainnet deployment.
We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that form the core logic of your dApp. Our development process ensures security-first design, gas optimization, and full audit readiness from day one.
- Token Systems: Custom
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, and multi-chain token bridges. - DeFi Protocols: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), lending/borrowing pools, and yield aggregators.
- Governance & DAOs: Voting mechanisms, treasury management, and proposal systems.
- Enterprise Logic: Custom business logic for supply chain, identity, and asset tokenization.
We deliver a fully tested, documented, and deployable contract suite in 4-6 weeks, backed by a 99.9% uptime SLA for critical functions.
Built with Solidity 0.8+ and Hardhat, we implement OpenZeppelin standards and prepare your code for third-party audits by CertiK or ConsenSys Diligence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about modernizing industrial control systems with blockchain for enhanced security, transparency, and automation.
A standard integration from proof-of-concept to production deployment takes 8-12 weeks. This includes 2 weeks for architecture design and data mapping, 4-5 weeks for smart contract development and on-chain logic, 2 weeks for system integration and testing with your existing SCADA (e.g., Siemens, Rockwell), and 1-2 weeks for deployment and team training. Complex multi-site rollouts may extend this timeline.
