Industrial and Process
Astra Engineering supports industrial and process clients from greenfield sites to phased expansions, coordinating civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, and controls work under one roof. With real operations experience, we design to how plants run, not just how drawings read. We verify conditions, align scope early, stay engaged on site through start-up, and answer field questions fast. New systems tie in cleanly, legacy assets upgrade with minimal downtime, and deliverables are buildable. One accountable partner from concept to commissioning.
Construction Engineering
Construction in operating plants is never simple, and greenfield builds are no easier. We develop constructible drawings, bid-ready packages, and sequencing that respects shutdown windows or startup dates. Civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, and controls are coordinated so foundations, utilities, and equipment tie-ins land cleanly. We verify real conditions, resolve clashes early, and answer field questions fast. The result: predictable installs, cleaner RFIs, and documentation crews actually build from, whether you are breaking ground or cutting in a new line.
What you get
Site planning, grading, utilities, and foundation packages ready for permit and bid
Constructability reviews and clash detection before mobilization
Shutdown and startup phasing that protects production targets
Rapid RFI turnaround and on-site problem solving
As-built capture and closeout documentation with real-world updates
One accountable partner from design through install
Process Engineering
We develop and refine process systems for new plants and existing lines, from concept modeling to start-up support. PFDs, P&IDs, mass and energy balances, and equipment sizing are coordinated with mechanical, electrical, and controls so the whole system works as one. We verify real production data, identify bottlenecks, and plan tie-ins or upgrades with minimal downtime. You get practical documentation, clear operating parameters, and a team that stays involved until the process runs the way you intended.
What you get
PFDs, P&IDs, and mass/energy balances tied to real production targets
Equipment and line sizing, spec sheets, and utility load calculations
Bottleneck analysis and debottlenecking plans for throughput increases
Integration plans for new process equipment with existing systems
Commissioning support and updates to SOPs and process documentation
Compliance alignment with applicable codes and industry standards
Automation
We integrate PLCs, HMIs, SCADA, remote monitoring, and robotics so your control architecture is reliable, maintainable, and easy to troubleshoot. Whether tying automation into a new line or replacing legacy code in a live plant, we standardize tags, document logic, and plan changeovers around production windows. Our team programs and validates PLC logic, builds intuitive operator screens, and connects data to your historians and CMMS. The result is faster startups, cleaner diagnostics, and fewer midnight calls.
What you get
PLC programming and integration (Siemens-focused, vendor-neutral where needed)
HMI and SCADA development with standardized navigation and alarms
Robotics cell integration and safety interlocks
Remote monitoring, diagnostics, and secure connectivity plans
Tag databases, logic documentation, and version control for long-term maintenance
Commissioning support and operator training
Data Collection and Analytics
We capture and use plant data so decisions are based on facts, not guesswork. LiDAR scanning and point clouds become accurate 3D models for layout, clearance checks, and digital twins. SCADA and PLC data feed historians and dashboards for real-time monitoring and KPI tracking. We standardize tags, clean messy datasets, and connect critical signals to alerts or CMMS workflows. The result: clearer visibility into performance, faster troubleshooting, and better planning for maintenance, upgrades, and expansions.
What you get
LiDAR scans, point clouds, and 3D models for accurate as-builts and digital twins
SCADA/PLC data integration with historians, dashboards, and trend tools
KPI and OEE tracking, alarm rationalization, and downtime analysis
Tag standardization, data cleanup, and secure data access architectures
Integration with CMMS, MES, or ERP for actionable maintenance and production insights
