The migration of our own process control systems to SIMATIC 

PCS 7 is a matter of course for Siemens, and a significant 

component of the continued supplier/customer relationship. 

Siemens is additionally able to offer migration solutions for pro-

cess control systems from other vendors, e.g. for systems from 

ABB, Honeywell or Emerson. 
Siemens can work closely with the customer’s system integrators 

when implementing migration projects, for they have the know-

how gained over many years of working with the user and ex-

actly know the plant as well as the customer’s requirements. This 

partnership is a guarantee for the companies operating plants 

that they will receive an optimum migration solution. A further im-

portant aspect is that Siemens supports the migration products 

as well as the standard products by means of product updating 

and customer support. A special strength of Siemens compared 

to other suppliers of migration solutions is the ability to offer cus-

tomers long-term support through know-how, servicing and pro-

vision of components, spare parts and upgrades.
With the future-oriented SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system, 

innovative migration solutions and services, many years of 

know-how in process automation and migration, as well as con-

tinuous worldwide servicing, Siemens demonstrates its exper-

tise and offers the security of a reliable partner.

Siemens has established several global Migration Support Cen-

ters which offer customers further support for migration projects 

in addition to product support:
• Migration concepts
• Quotation preparation
• Engineering/project management

Through the development of flexible migration solutions and ser-

vices, comprehensive sector know-how, migration experience 

developed over many years, and worldwide support, Siemens 

has laid the foundation for the development of migration solu-

tions for third-party control systems. This allows users of third-

party control systems to take advantage of the globally leading 

SIMATIC technology in order to safeguard their investments in 

new automation technology for the future.
