Janus Automation

What Janus Automation does

Janus Automation is a privately-held industrial automation and IT integration services firm headquartered in San Pedro Garza García, Nuevo León, Mexico, with regional offices across Brazil (Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro), the United States (Pittsburgh/PA and Houston/TX), and Argentina (Buenos Aires, San Nicolás). The company delivers integrated automation solutions spanning the full industrial stack from field instrumentation to enterprise business systems (L0–L4), organized around five service lines: Automation Solutions and Services (PLC, HMI, drives, panel building, MCCs, process control, customized robotics), Logistics Automation (AGVs, AS/RS, transfer cars, cranes, WMS), Safety Solutions (collision avoidance, anti-sway, proximity warning, ground safety), Industrial IT (ERP integration, cloud computing, predictive maintenance, big data analytics), and Digital Transformation (AI, ML, AR/VR, Smart Solutions with modular video analytics).

Its core offering is project-based professional services sold through enterprise field sales, with a bench of 250+ engineers executing design, implementation, start-up, and ongoing support. Technology components are largely integrated third-party platforms (PLCs, MES, ERP connectors, analytics) packaged with the firm's engineering labor, supplemented by in-house safety and anti-sway control systems and a Smart Solutions video analytics stack. Janus Automation monetizes via project fees and ongoing support contracts to industrial clients in steel, manufacturing, logistics, and adjacent heavy industries, including marquee engagements such as the Nucor Gallatin automated racking system (over 4,600 tons of structural steel, six automated overhead cranes) which received an Award of Merit in Manufacturing in 2024.

The company has no disclosed funding rounds, M&A, or external institutional investors; ownership is private and undisclosed. There are no apps, public APIs, SDKs, patents, certifications, or partnerships on record. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, consistent with custom enterprise project quoting. The revenue model is professional services with project-based pricing typical of industrial systems integrators.
