What Edge Controls does
Edge Controls is a private industrial automation and controls services company headquartered in Midland, Texas, serving oil and gas production, midstream, water logistics, and adjacent industrial customers across the Permian Basin (West Texas and Southeast New Mexico). Founded in November 2022 and operating with 11-50 employees anchored around 10+ field service technicians, the company delivers a vertically integrated service stack spanning rotating equipment (electric motors, variable frequency drives from 1HP to 2,000HP, horizontal and ANSI pumps), automation and controls engineering (PLC programming, HMI design, system integration, turn-key project execution), and a proprietary hosted cloud-based SCADA platform branded Edge SCADA.
Edge SCADA is built on Inductive Automation's Ignition platform and Perspective module under a certified Ignition Integrator relationship, and is differentiated by being fully managed and hosted by Edge Controls rather than deployed on-premises, with mobile access, real-time dashboards, configurable alarms, and automated email/text alerting. The underlying technology stack also covers familiarity with adjacent SCADA platforms (Wonderware, ClearSCADA, Cygnet), supporting modernization of legacy systems.
Edge Controls generates revenue through four streams: (1) one-time hardware sales of VFDs, motors, and pumps; (2) 24/7 maintenance, repair, and field service contracts for rotating equipment; (3) project-based automation and controls engineering engagements; and (4) subscription-style recurring hosted SCADA service fees. GTM is direct field sales with quote-based pricing, no disclosed public pricing, and lead capture via the company website, phone, and LinkedIn. In February 2026, DNOW Inc. (NYSE: DNOW) acquired Edge Controls for $46 million to expand automation and controls capabilities within its U.S. Process Solutions segment.
