Technology partners — nine platforms, two control camps
Most integrators are a Siemens house or a Rockwell house. Being credible in both is what lets one engineering partner cover a mixed estate across sites.

Who we are
Built for lines that cannot stop.
Ivevane Automation was founded in 2019 to support essential industries through advanced control systems and techniques. What began during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 shutdown has become an engineering practice trusted on production lines where downtime is measured in cost per minute.
At the heart of the approach is a hand-picked team of engineers whose experience spans decades of delivered projects. Every system is designed, installed and maintained to sit at the forefront of industry standards — and every solution is tailor-made to the operation it serves.
“Automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency. Automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency.”
Vision
To bring engineering concepts to life, to improve our customers' experience through quality products and service delivery, and to be a global leader in industrial automation through innovation and technology.
Mission
To become pivotal in our customers' success by being customer-centric, providing world-class quality engineering services and solutions — upholding the highest integrity, honesty and professional standards.

Solutions
Full lifecycle, one engineering team.
From feasibility study to commissioning to the 3 a.m. call — capability that spans the whole life of a control system, not a slice of it.

How we deliver
Six stages, one engineering team.
Feasibility through to the 3 a.m. call. Scroll the stages — the imagery follows the work.
- 01Discovery
Understand the plant before proposing anything
Feasibility studies, audits and investigations. On inherited plant this often means reverse-engineering what is already there, because the documentation rarely survived the original integrator.
- 02Design
Control philosophy, then hardware
Control systems design, instrumentation specification, network architecture and functional safety assessment. Risk assessment and SIL determination happen here — not retrofitted after the panel is built.
- 03Build
Panels built by the team that wrote the code
Control panels and motor control centres manufactured in-house. When the same organisation designs the philosophy, builds the cabinet and writes the logic, the integration risk that normally sits between three suppliers disappears.
- 04Validate
Prove it before the line exists
Digital twins, 3D scanning and virtual commissioning run the real control code against a model of the plant. Faults found in a model cost hours; the same faults found during a live commissioning window cost days of lost production.
- 05Commission
On site, inside the shutdown window
Installation, loop checks, sequence testing and handover — planned around a fixed shutdown rather than assuming the plant will wait. This is where cross-border delivery is genuinely tested.
- 06Support
The relationship starts at handover
24-hour remote dial-in, telephone and on-site support, with breakdown response when a line stops without warning. Engineering wins the first project; response time wins the next five.
Industries
Five sectors we can prove.
Listed because there is delivered work or stated capability behind each one — not because the list looks longer.
- 01

Manufacturing
Production and packaging lines where throughput and repeatability decide the margin.
- 02
.jpeg&w=1920&q=75)
Mining & Minerals
Process automation for concentrator plants, tailings pumping, acid plants and flocculation.
- 03

Partnerships
Independent by design.
Ivevane is not tied to a single vendor stack. That independence is why multinationals running mixed estates across plants can bring us into any site — and why technology partners choose us to deliver their platforms in territories they cannot staff.
Active In confirmation Strategic Technology Partnership
A dedicated partnership showcase. Details to be published once the agreement is confirmed for release.
Active Future Partnerships
Open to integrators and OEMs needing engineering and commissioning capability across Africa and beyond.
