Industrial automation & controls
Controls engineers, PLC and SCADA specialists. Allen-Bradley and Rockwell, Siemens, Ignition, FactoryTalk and Wonderware. Commissioning, migrations and line integration for manufacturers and system integrators.
INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION · DATA & ANALYTICS · STAFFING
From the plant floor to the dashboard.
ProdigyM Solutions places controls engineers who make the equipment run, and the data people who turn what it produces into numbers leadership can defend. Based in St Charles, Missouri; working across the United States.
WHAT WE DO
Four things, done properly.
We are deliberately narrow. Everything below is work our consultants have done for years — not a service line we added last quarter.
BI & analytics dashboards
Power BI, Tableau, BusinessObjects, Qlik, Cognos, Looker and SSRS. New builds, migrations between any of them, and rescue work on estates that have stopped being trusted. We work in the platform you have.
Data & analytics engineering
ETL and pipeline work, dimensional modelling, data warehouse builds, and the unglamorous reconciliation that makes a number defensible when finance and operations disagree.
Technology staffing
Contract, contract-to-hire and direct placement. Controls and automation engineers, BI and data engineers, ServiceNow specialists — sourced from a bench we know personally, not a resume database.
WHY BOTH
The data starts on the plant floor.
Most firms sell you one end or the other. Controls houses put the line in and leave. BI consultancies arrive years later and discover the tags were never named consistently, the historian was an afterthought, and nobody can say what OEE actually means here.
We do both ends, which mostly means we stop that happening. A controls engineer who knows the data will eventually be reported on names things properly the first time. It costs nothing extra and saves a project later.
If you only need one end of it, that is fine too — most engagements are exactly that.
- PLC, SCADA and HMI engineers who have commissioned real lines
- Historian, tag and OT data structure done properly at build time
- Reporting and OEE dashboards built on data that can be trusted
- One firm accountable across both, when you want that
THE BI PRACTICE
Most migrations fail on the model, not the visuals.
Rebuilding dashboards is the easy half. What breaks a migration is arriving in Power BI with the same undocumented logic, duplicated measures and ambiguous column names the old platform accumulated over a decade.
That matters more now than it used to. Copilot in Power BI, Tableau Pulse, and every natural-language layer being bolted onto these platforms read your data model as their source of truth. A messy model does not just produce a slow report — it produces a confident wrong answer.
We treat the model as the deliverable and the reports as what falls out of it.
How the practice works- Inventory and rationalise before anything is rebuilt
- Star-schema modelling with documented, tested measures
- Metadata prepared so AI and natural-language queries resolve correctly
- Row-level security and workspace governance from day one
- Parallel-run and reconciliation against the outgoing platform
- Handover that leaves your team able to maintain it
HOW WE WORK
Small senior teams. No pyramid.
You get the consultant you met. We do not staff an engagement with one architect and four juniors and bill you for five.
- 01
Scope honestly
A short paid assessment, or a free call if the shape of the work is already clear. If we are not the right firm we will say so on that call.
- 02
Fix the foundation
Model, pipeline and governance before dashboards. This is the part most vendors skip because it does not demo well.
- 03
Build and reconcile
Deliver in increments you can check. Every number gets tied back to a source you already trust before we call it done.
- 04
Hand over properly
Documentation, naming standards and a working session with your team. The goal is that you do not need us for routine changes.
WHY PRODIGYM
What actually makes a difference.
Senior by default
Our consultants average fifteen or more years in Microsoft BI, ETL and data warehousing. Certified, and long past the stage of learning on your project.
US and India coverage
Onshore leads with offshore capacity where it genuinely helps cost or turnaround. You always have a named US point of contact.
We reconcile our own work
Every engagement ends with numbers tied back to source. If our figure and your finance system disagree, that is our problem to explain, not yours.
Straight answers on scope
We will tell you when a request is a three-week job and when it is a three-day job. Including when that costs us revenue.
Staffing and delivery under one roof
If a project needs a permanent hire rather than a consultant, we can do that instead. The incentive is the outcome, not the billable hour.
Small enough to care
You will not be handed to an account manager. The person who scopes the work stays on it.
Tell us what is not working.
A thirty-minute call. We will either scope it, or tell you who is better placed to help.
