A Manufacturer’s Guide to Managing Control System Obsolescence
Is aging control system infrastructure putting your operations at risk?
Many manufacturers know their control systems are obsolete—but upgrading aging components often feels disruptive, expensive, or complex. Unfortunately, waiting until failure turns obsolescence into an emergency project will make these changes harder, riskier, and more expensive to execute.
In this white paper, we share a practical, structured approach to managing control system obsolescence that includes:
- Assessing operational risks and prioritizing upgrades
- Developing an implementation plan that minimizes downtime
- Preparing your team for change and avoid common pitfalls
- Minimizing downtime through strategic scheduling
