What Daedalus Industrial does

Daedalus Industrial is a privately held industrial automation and controls integrator founded in 2018 and headquartered in Easley, South Carolina. The company designs, manufactures, and integrates custom control panels (UL508A certified), Building Management Systems (BMS), SCADA/IoT solutions, robotic automation (FANUC), and OT cybersecurity services for data center, manufacturing, and government/defense customers. Its operations are anchored in a 66,000+ sq ft manufacturing and engineering facility, with a second office in Bradenton, Florida, and it reports more than 10,000 panels manufactured, 300+ completed projects, and 75+ unique customers.

The company's core technology stack centers on controls engineering (PLC/HMI, SCADA, IoT), robotics with custom EOAT and 2D/3D vision, and a proprietary software platform called DaedaPanel™ — a registered trademark that automates BMS panel configuration, generates schematics, CAD drawings, and bills of materials, and supports modular Daeda-POD deployments through QR-coded lifecycle tooling. Daedalus complements this with in-house data scientists delivering AI applications for predictive maintenance, machine vision, and process optimization, plus OT cybersecurity design aligned with NIST 800-171 and IEC 62443. Capabilities span proof-of-concept, engineering and design, prototyping, fabrication, controls-centric installation, and licensed low/ultra-low-voltage electrical contracting.

The business model is project-based and consultative, with revenue generated through custom panel manufacturing, engineering services, turnkey automation projects, BMS/mission-critical deployments, installation/electrical contracting, and OT cybersecurity audits. Pricing is quote-driven and not publicly disclosed; sales run through a direct enterprise field motion anchored by website CTAs ('Get A Quote' and 'Schedule a Call'). In April 2025, the company received a growth-stage private equity investment from LongueVue Capital intended to scale operational infrastructure for power, cooling, and automation demand, particularly across data center and mission-critical customers.
