Project Summary

Tomsk State University engaged Rubius to develop a SCADA system over a three-year engagement in which Rubius provided concept development, architecture, and full implementation of multiple modules with both web and desktop versions. The vendor produced a system that outperformed competitors in performance and reliability, was adaptable across manufacturers and industries, and was delivered with clear communication and strong project management.

Key Challenges

Implement the entire software package in 3 years across 15+ modules
Avoid use of proprietary programs, SDKs, or frameworks
Develop 8 specified modules including HMI editing/playback, graphics/events subsystem, and an OPC UA transport subsystem
Support both web and desktop versions for all modules

Project Deliverables

Concept and architecture documents
HMI module (web and desktop)
Desktop versions for charts, events and mnemonic visualization
Web versions of modules
OPC UA transport component
Test methodology and QA
Project management and overall system integration

Project Solution

Rubius delivered a three-year, six-stage engagement to develop a SCADA system. They produced concept and design documentation, described architectures for each module, developed the HMI and visualization modules, built desktop and web versions, implemented a transport subsystem component based on the OPC UA standard without using third-party code, prepared test methodology and QA artifacts, and ultimately assumed overall project management and system integration responsibilities. The primary technologies used were C++ and Qt.

Project Outcome

The SCADA system was successfully completed and presented to major industrial companies
The software outperformed competitors in performance and reliability
The solution was adaptable to different manufacturers and industries
Modules can operate standalone or integrate into third-party solutions
