ABB Ability™ System 800xA is one of the most widely deployed distributed control systems (DCS) in process and power industries. Controware provides end-to-end 800xA engineering — from greenfield design to the evolution and migration of legacy control systems — across the UAE, KSA and Egypt.

Our 800xA services

Design & engineering — control narratives, I/O architecture, graphics and control logic.
System integration — connecting 800xA to field devices, PLCs, drives, MES and historians over multiple protocols.
Upgrade & migration — evolving legacy DCS (including third-party systems) to 800xA with minimised downtime.
Commissioning & support — FAT/SAT, loop checks, start-up and accountable SLA support.

Why migrate to 800xA?

Ageing control systems increase spares risk, cyber exposure and unplanned downtime. A staged migration preserves your process knowledge while modernising operator experience, alarm management and data connectivity.

Part of a full automation practice

800xA sits within our wider industrial automation capability — see also SCADA & DCS solutions, AVEVA System Platform & PI System and OT cybersecurity.
