Ignition-Based Waterway Upgrade Ensures Long-Term Resilience For Adelaide Coastline
The Patawalonga Lake System (PLS) is a 1.6-kilometer man-made waterway designed to protect the Adelaide coastline, from Glenelg to West Beach, from flood risks. Managed by the Department for Environment and Water, the system plays a crucial role in community safety by controlling stormwater surges and tidal events. SAFEgroup Automation (SGA) recently upgraded the PLS, incorporating Ignition to enhance the system with modern automation and real-time capabilities. The key innovations included: Real-time API tidal data for more precise water flow control, enabling dynamic response to changing environmental conditions. Built-in videos to guide operators through the functional description, improving understanding and operational efficiency. A chatbox feature for communicating and recording maintenance work and events, streamlining coordination and documentation. CCTV integration for real-time surveillance, improving system monitoring and security. The ingestion of 20 years of historical data to aid in effective modeling and predictive analysis, optimizing future decision-making. The upgrade ensures faster, more accurate flood protection, better water quality management, and increased operational flexibility, while Ignition enables centralized control, seamless data integration, and scalable future upgrades.

Ignition-To-Ignition Upgrade Modernizes Oil & Gas Company’s Enterprise System For Peak Performance
EXCO Resources is a leading independent oil & gas company that engages in exploration, acquisition, development, and production of onshore U.S. oil & gas properties. Initially EXCO maintained a templated legacy Ignition 7.9 SCADA system with support from TIGA. After the internal EXCO SCADA team was dissolved, TIGA transitioned into a developmental support role, providing assistance, and guidance to fill the gap. During this time, it became apparent that EXCO was not utilizing Ignition to its maximum potential. Recognizing EXCO as a progressive, forward-thinking organization, TIGA upgraded EXCO’s system from Ignition 7.9 with Vision to Ignition 8.1 with Perspective as the primary production HMI. This upgrade allowed for significant advancements, enabling EXCO to expand beyond the typical confines of a standard SCADA system. TIGA undertook the challenge of developing a dynamic, customizable system that could operate on a global scale and ensure future-proof scalability for EXCO.

Enterprise Ignition System Transforms Operations For One Of Australia's Largest Fruit Producers
In the highly competitive agricultural sector, innovation, real-time visibility, and operational efficiency are no longer optional — they are essential for survival. Vide Ultra, supporting various Australian fruit companies, recognized this need for their customer as they expanded their orchard, cold storage, and processing operations across Australia. Following years of growth through a combination of greenfield developments and strategic acquisitions, the client’s operational technology environment had become fragmented, inefficient, and increasingly difficult to scale. Manual processes, siloed systems, and a mixture of outdated HMI and SCADA architectures created significant barriers to achieving operational excellence, quality control, and enterprise-wide visibility. Recognizing the urgent need for modernization, Vide Ultra brought in CanDoIt Solutions to design and deliver a fully integrated operational technology platform. Built on Inductive Automation’s Ignition ecosystem, alongside complementary technologies, the solution was crafted to unify operations from orchard management through to cold storage and high-volume processing. By centralizing data flows across all business layers, CanDoIt Solutions empowered Vide Ultra with a resilient, scalable architecture that delivers: Real-time operational visibility Full end-to-end traceability Performance optimization Data-driven strategic decision-making across the entire enterprise Ignition’s flexibility, rapid development capabilities, and modular approach allowed CanDoIt Solutions to bridge gaps between traditionally siloed operations, creating a future-ready foundation for continued growth and innovation in a highly competitive agricultural market.

Academy For Underprivileged Youth Leverages Ignition To Monitor 3D Bionic Prosthesis
Developed exclusively by students at Hebron IT Academy, who are youths from orphaned and underprivileged backgrounds, this project used a combination of Ignition and Arduino-based muscle sensors to train a 3D-printed hand prosthesis. This non-profit project aimed to address a critical gap faced by individuals who have lost limbs due to war or trauma: the long waiting period before receiving a permanent prosthesis. During this time, individuals are at risk of muscle atrophy and lack the opportunity to physically and psychologically prepare for using a bionic limb.
