The following is a representative list of current or recent LORD & COMPANY projects.

  • IBM Semiconductor Plant - Manufacturing SCADA System

LORD & COMPANY provided all upgrade to a site wide alarm and monitor system at IBM's semiconductor manufacturing facility in Manassas, Virginia.

  • IBM - Process Management and Control System for RODI Water Plant

LORD & COMPANY provided a SCADA system for the monitoring and control of an ultra high purity de-ionized water production plant.

  • Triple Redundant Class 10 Clean Room Controls - Semiconductor Manufacturing

LORD & COMPANY designed and installed a triple redundant microprocessor-based control system using programmable logic controllers for Class 10 clean process manufacturing facility for IBM Corporation.

  • Parris Island MCRD, Beaufort, SC – WWTP, Lift Stations and Energy Plant
Designed, tested, installed and commissioned a new SCADA System with forty-six (46) Allen-Bradley PLC based remote terminal units, three SCADA Workstation Computers, Instrumentation and Control for the WWTP and Energy Plant, Rockwell Automation RSView32 was utilized for the HMI SCADA system software. Johnson VHF Data radio was utilized for the Master and Remote radios.
  • Marine Corp Air Station, Beaufort, SC – MCAS WWTP, Laurel Bay WWTP and Lift Stations
Designed, tested, and commissioned a new SCADA System with nine (9) Modicon PLC based remote terminal units, two (2) HMI SCADA Workstation Computers and one (1) Workstation with customized WWTP report software for the lab. The Wonderware Intouch HMI SCADA software, five (5) RTU’s with radio communications and four (4) RTU’s with fiber optic communication were factory staged by Lord & Company, Inc. in Fort Mill, SC to assure proper operation prior to shipment. The System utilized spread spectrum radios by Microwave Data Systems “MDS” and fiber optic communications for remote and local PLC’s, I/O interfaces, and new SCADA Workstation Computer at Laurel Bay WWTP, communications with a SCADA Workstation Computer at the Marine Corp Air Station WWTP via a MDS spread spectrum radio repeater (also designed, supplied, and installed by L&C) and remote dialup access from a notebook computer. The System included a Remote Alarm Display Panel for indication of system status at the Heating Plant at the MCAS and automatic pacing for chemical feed. An existing Computer Workstation for the potable water system was upgraded for all the additional applications of the new system at both WWTP’s.
Maintenance and operator training were all performed by L&C. The Owner has been so pleased with our training that they have contracted us several times over the last three years for additional training of new personnel.

  • City of Chattanooga, Tennessee – Wastewater Lift Stations, CSO Facilities & WWTP
Ongoing System additions and service contract for the City’s Motorola MOSCAD System with Wonderware Intouch as the HMI. Other work includes many contracts from 1998 to the present for I&C Systems for the City’s large lift stations and CSO Facilities. The City has standardized on GE-Fanuc 90-30, Model 352 CPU for the large Lift Stations and CSO Facilities. The SCADA System has grown to over 100 Motorola MOSCAD RTU’s, all on a 800 MHz Truck System. L&C has provided the SCADA System and I&C for three of the City’s CSO Facilities and numerous lift stations.
