The Foundation for the Digital Transformation: Consistent and Continuous Data, Transparent Processes

At EPLAN, our experience shows that consistent and continuous data is the decisive foundation for the digital transformation. We’re a strong partner at your side, with engineering solutions for electrical engineering and automation technology. Your EPLAN projects will become the central basis for transparent company processes, benefitting your entire value chain: from electrical engineering design, to manufacturing, commissioning and even operating machines and plant systems.


Networked Stakeholders: Component Manufacturers, System Operators, OEMs, Panel Builders

The digital transformation doesn’t end at the door of your own company. A number of different companies are all involved in creating machines and plant systems: manufacturers of automation components, system operators, OEMs in machine and plant system construction, and panel builders and control cabinet manufacturers. The ecosystem of industrial automation connects all these stakeholders in a transparent value chain network.
