Siemens PLC automation

Siemens PLC & TIA Portal engineering for Ireland and the UK

S7-1500 programming, WinCC HMI and SCADA, integration, commissioning and migrations for manufacturing plants.

The challenge

Ageing Siemens controllers, undocumented code and stretched in-house teams are a common cause of downtime and stalled upgrades. Finding a TIA Portal engineer who can pick up an existing project, understand it and deliver changes safely is often harder than it should be.

JJA Group provides Siemens PLC engineering as a contractor or as a delivery partner. We deliver most engineering remotely from our base in Kraków, Poland, and travel to Ireland, the UK and Europe for build, FAT/SAT and commissioning.

What we do

  • Siemens S7-1500 PLC programming in TIA Portal, structured and documented for long-term maintenance
  • WinCC HMI and SCADA development, plus Citect SCADA support
  • Modbus TCP integration with drives, meters, packaged equipment and third-party systems
  • On-site and remote commissioning, I/O checkout and loop testing
  • Upgrades and migrations from legacy Siemens platforms to S7-1500 and current TIA Portal versions
  • Code review, fault finding and modifications to existing TIA Portal projects
  • Ongoing engineering support for manufacturing and pharma / life-sciences plants

Frequently asked questions

Do you work on existing TIA Portal projects written by others?+

Yes. We regularly review, fault-find and extend existing Siemens projects. We start by understanding the current code and documenting what we change.

Can you migrate legacy Siemens PLCs to S7-1500?+

Yes. We scope the migration, convert and restructure the logic in TIA Portal, and plan the cutover and commissioning to keep production disruption to a minimum.

Do you support Modbus TCP integration?+

Yes. We integrate S7-1500 controllers with drives, power meters, packaged skids and other third-party devices over Modbus TCP.

Do you work on site in Ireland and the UK?+

Yes. We deliver most engineering remotely from our base in Kraków, Poland, and travel to Ireland, the UK and Europe for build, FAT/SAT and commissioning.

Can you work as a contractor inside our engineering team?+

Yes. We can work under your standards and project structure, or deliver a defined scope as a package.
