What Ingemation Engineering does

Ingemation Ingeniería, S.L. is a privately held Spanish industrial engineering company founded in 2010, headquartered in Cádiz with a secondary office in Madrid and a primary manufacturing facility in Puerto Real (Cádiz). The firm provides full-lifecycle engineering services — from basic (FEED) through detailed and construction-phase engineering — for industrial process automation, instrumentation, electrical engineering, telecommunications, and control disciplines, alongside custom hardware manufacturing of control panels, low-voltage distribution panels, motor control centers, and remote I/O cabinets. It serves enterprise clients across oil & gas and refining (Moeve, Cepsa), offshore wind HVDC transmission (Dragados Offshore for Amprion and Tennet platforms), naval and defense (Navantia, Spanish Ministry of Defense / Royal Observatory of the Armada), telecommunications (Vodafone), and renewable energy (Gestamp Biomass, Ence, Berkes), with project delivery spanning Spain, Germany, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, India, Italy, Peru, Argentina, French Guiana, and Belarus.

The technology stack is built on PLC (Siemens PCS 7 / Simatic PCS neo), DCS (ABB, Honeywell), and SCADA system integration using industrial protocols (Modbus TCP, Profibus, Profinet, Ethernet), with proprietary iFAT (integrated Factory Acceptance Testing) methodology validating cross-vendor interoperability on systems managing 5,000 to 12,000 signals per project. A distinctive capability is the company's ROA-certified Master Clock / time synchronization systems — deployed on Saudi AVT2200 corvettes, BAM Spanish Navy vessels, and Vodafone data centers — extended in 2019 to the construction of a strontium optical network clock for the Royal Observatory of the Armada. Communications and OT cybersecurity services follow ISA/IEC 62443 standards.

The business model combines professional services (FEED, detailed engineering, project management, commissioning) with hardware sales of custom-manufactured control and distribution equipment, distributed via direct enterprise sales and strategic partners including Dragados Offshore (HVDC EPC), Berkes (biomass EPC), Siemens (Solution Partner Automation since 2019), Navantia, and CUBIC. Pricing is project-based and not publicly disclosed. The firm is ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 certified, is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, and reported plans to deliver more than 300 control panels in the first half of 2026 from its expanded Puerto Real facility.
