SIMATIC PCS neo is the first fully web-based control system to provide a new dimension of process control flexibility in the process industry. Based on integrated IT/OT network and web technologies, it enables global collaboration and ensures easy and direct system access from anywhere in the world and on several devices to complete e.g. monitoring tasks. The system is no longer limited by time, space or hardware functions, and it enables truly remote operation and maintenance.   
With water being a vital resource, the safety of water plants is crucial. The Windows certificate mechanism, plus SIMATIC PCS neo User Management Component, enable centralized user administration and network security protection: from the project design to system operation.  SIMATIC PCS neo also supports the Digital Twin to simulate and optimize water plants via the SIMIT simulation software.
