OUR PORTFOLIO

Take A Look At Some Of
Our Case Studies

Business for us at IDS is all about relationships. Over the years since our founding in 2001, we’ve worked with clients in the energy industry, chemicals industry, and others, building relationships that we value above everything else.

Rapid Response Emergency Support during Texas Storm
During an unprecedented Texas storm in February 2021, IDS provided rapid response emergency support for a utility that enabled the utility to avoid loss of power generation capabilities during a critical time.
Integrates Generation Control & Switchyard Data
A Midwest Generating company selected control systems integrator Industrial Design Solutions to upgrade the plant’s existing Automatic Dispatch System and Data interface of Switchyard Data.
Study for Power Generating Station
Legacy control system components can lead to failures, unplanned outages, and even long-term shutdowns due to ineffective or inoperable equipment. A large power company contracted IDS to provide a detailed engineering study to evaluate the obsolescence and longevity of the plant’s control system.
Custom Engineering & Training
Many utilities are experiencing employee turnover as aging technicians begins to retire, replaced with new and inexperienced recruits. These electricians need to become familiar with the inner workings of the DCS platform they will be supporting, to effectively troubleshoot and repair the instrumentation they support.
High-Fidelity Operator Training
A large power generating station was looking for a training simulator to provide a realistic training experience for the plant’s operations staff. They needed a high-fidelity simulator that used Honeywell’s Experion control system as a front end, mimicking the same experience an operator has from the plant’s main control room.
Chemical Manufacturer Modernization
Facing the challenges of an aging Honeywell TDC 3000 control system, a large chemical manufacturing plant decided it was time to upgrade their DCS to Honeywell Experion.
Enhancing Aux Boiler Efficiency
A chemical plant that runs several large auxiliary boilers needed to improve the efficiency of their forced-draft (FD) fans and reduce energy use. To do this, they needed an engineering firm to modify the Aux Boiler’s control algorithms to properly handle the new VFDs.
Modernizing a Honeywell TDC 3000
A large power generating utility came to IDS for assistance migrating their obsolete TDC 3000 control system to a new Honeywell Experion system. Plant personnel wanted to extend the life of their control system, improve troubleshooting and increase system reliability.
