Controlmatica SAS

What Controlmatica SAS does

CONTROLMÁTICA S.A.S. is a Colombian industrial automation system integrator founded in 2015 and headquartered in Medellín, serving enterprise customers in food and beverage, automotive, mining, energy, personal care, paper, plastics, cement, and oil/petrochemicals. The company delivers engineering diagnostics with 24/7 emergency support, process and motion control project implementation, legacy-to-modern control system migrations, and custom electrical panel assembly. Visible customers include Alpina, Argos, Colanta, Coldeplast, Kimberly Clark, Noel, Procter & Gamble, and Sofasa (Renault), reflecting an enterprise sales motion anchored in long-cycle project work rather than transactional volume.

The technical core is built around the Rockwell Automation integrated architecture — ControlLogix L73 PLCs, Control I/O, PanelView Plus 6 operator panels, PowerFlex 525/755 variable frequency drives, and Kinetix 350/6000/6500 servo drives with MPL motors — networked via Ethernet/IP ring and star topologies, with support for legacy DH+ and RS422 protocols during migrations. Service breadth extends to SCADA supervision (Wonderware InTouch, FactoryTalk View SE), ISA-88/S88 batch integration, and multi-vendor network integration (ControlNet, DeviceNet, Profibus, Modbus, Profinet). Differentiation rests on certified partnership status in the Rockwell Automation SI program and Wonderware Intouch integrator program (since August 2015), enabling access to proprietary platforms and vendor-backed technical support.

Controlmatica makes money through professional services engagements (engineering diagnostics, project design, programming, commissioning, and integration) and hardware sales from control panel assembly, with custom project-based pricing rather than published rate cards. A 24/7 emergency response capability likely supports a premium-pricing maintenance slice. Distribution is direct-to-enterprise via a specialized engineering team with no resellers, supported by an alliance network of manufacturers (Schneider, Siemens, Prosoft, Rittal, DKC Europe), distributors, panel builders, and complementary integrators. Marketing is minimal, limited to LinkedIn and Facebook pages plus a published Kimberly Clark migration case study, indicating reliance on vendor partner directories and direct relationships rather than demand-generation.
