Concera Becomes Africa’s First Ignition Premier Integrator
Some partnerships move projects forward. Others move an entire industry forward.
Concera levelling up to Premier Integrator status with Inductive Automation is one of those moments.
This milestone makes Concera not only a Premier Integrator, but the first System Integration Company in Africa to achieve the highest level in the Ignition Integrator Program. It’s a recognition reserved for integrators who consistently deliver innovative, high-impact industrial solutions. If you can Dream It, You can Do It.
What Premier Integrator Status Really Means
Premier Integrator status isn’t just a badge. It’s a proven signal.
It reflects technical excellence, proven project delivery, and a deep commitment to helping industrial organisations with their operations using Ignition. It also places Concera among a global community of Premier Integrators shaping the future of industrial automation.
With more than 50 years of combined experience across electrical engineering, control systems, instrumentation, and design, Concera has built a reputation for simplifying complex control environments. Their work spans critical industries, including mining, manufacturing, energy, data centres, construction, and engineering, sectors where reliability and visibility are non-negotiable.
Proven Innovation in the Field
This recognition follows closely on the heels of Concera receiving a Firebrand Award at the Ignition Community Conference in 2025.
Their award-winning project replaced legacy SCADA systems at Sibanye-Stillwater’s Rustenburg platinum operations with a modern Abnormal Status Monitoring (ASM)-style platform built on Ignition. The solution unified monitoring across multiple shafts, compressors, and utility systems, enabling operators to see more, respond faster, and operate with greater confidence.
This is exactly what modern industrial platforms are meant to do: turn complexity into clarity.
Why This Matters for Africa
Concera becoming the first Premier Integrator in Africa is an important milestone for the region’s industrial automation landscape.
It means organisations across South Africa and the broader continent can work with a locally based integrator that has been recognised by Inductive Automation at the highest level of its Integrator Program.
Premier Integrators have demonstrated strong technical capability, consistent project delivery, and deep experience building solutions on the Ignition platform. For industrial companies, this provides confidence that they are working with a partner who meets globally recognised standards while operating within their local context.
It’s a meaningful step forward for the Ignition ecosystem in Africa and for the organisations investing in modern, scalable automation systems.
Building the Future, Together
Partnerships like this matter because they strengthen the entire ecosystem. Strong integrators enable stronger solutions, which enable stronger industries.
Concera’s achievements reflect their technical excellence, commitment to innovation, and role in advancing industrial automation across Africa.
And this is only the beginning.
